• 12 Feb 2025 in Senate: Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, I would like to end by commending Sen. Onyonka on the issue you have raised in Marani Sub-county about licensing in mining. This is a serious problem. It is in Nyatige, Macalder, Ikolomani, Isulu, Lirembe, Malinya, Shikoye, Masiyenze, Shinyalu, Imwidzwa, Liranda, Lurambi in Rostaman. view
• 12 Feb 2025 in Senate: Yes, you are right, Sen. Faki. This is a cross-cutting issue, which we must address. Gold mining and mining in general is so profitable that when they do it at great risk, our children still go down there. We have to pay proper attention and support the mining industry. As I speak, we are burying Chui in Shitoli Village, who perished last week in a gold mining danger after the walls caved in. The day after tomorrow, I will be running to Kakamega to bury another youth. It is not that we love funerals. However, if we do not stand ... view
• 12 Feb 2025 in Senate: Hon. Salasya is doing a fantastic job about this job. He is on the same stand like me and the Governor. I warn the young politicians from Kakamega County who are being influenced to go and support the conmanship from West Kenya. Mumiasi Sugar Company will be run by Sarbi and not anybody else until you cancel the agreement. The electronic version of the Senate Hansard Report is for information purposesonly.

• 12 Feb 2025 in Senate: Yes, I would like him to inform me. In fact, he is a presidential candidate. He is the right person. He is the first presidential candidate to inform me in my life. view
• 12 Feb 2025 in Senate: Thank you, Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir. Indeed, this is a great man. I had been cornered by one of the people who were responsible for the collapse of Mumias Company Limited. If it had not been for the industry of the Senator for Busia County, I would have been found liable for slander. He gave me facts with which I faced the courts. I thank the Senator for Kisumu County, Sen. (Prof.) Tom Odhiambo Ojienda. He is not in today. He was representing the person who had sued me. After he looked at my case, he told the person who ... view

• 12 Feb 2025 in Senate: Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, I appreciate the information and send you greetings of the people of Kakamega to the people of Nandi, especially Mosop. After we encouraged them to grow sugarcane, every Thursday when they came to collect money at Butali Sugar Company, all our alcohol is sorted out, it is finished; it is sold out. The economy, Mr. Temporary Speaker--- view
• 12 Feb 2025 in Senate: I do not know why the Senator of Nandi was running ahead of me. I said because of the way they promote our economy, you go and greet them. I had only singled out one. It has also resulted in an increased number of our women getting married in Mossop, which is a good thing because you pay dowry. As to whether you are good at nuptial responsibilities, that is an agreement between a man and wife; I have no idea. I, therefore, want to thank the House for allowing me to make this point very clear this afternoon. It ... view
• 12 Feb 2025 in Senate: Thank you, the Senate Majority Leader. That is exactly the point. The mischief by the newspaper was a lack of clarity. The clarity is a follows. There is enough cane for West Kenya to mill and support the Kshs24 billion economy in its area. Enough for Butali Sugar to mill and support the Kshs10 billion economy. Enough for Mumias to support Kshs40 billion because Mumias also uses Busia farmers. So they have got a bigger catchment area. Now, to run the ethanol plants, dear Kenyans which is in Mumias, to run Ecogen plant which is in Mumias, you need raw ... view
