Mr. Speaker, Sir, I urge the Senate and National Assembly committees on Health to give us a proper way forward on resolving the health crisis. I also call upon the CoG to be serious because they were supposed to have a meeting on how to resolve this health crisis. However, the CoG conveniently avoided holding that meeting yesterday. Yesterday, our proceedings were almost disrupted because of the noise and protests by medical doctors and other health professionals who were demonstrating. Many Kenyans are suffering, and our hospitals are dysfunctional. The strike has been there for long enough. The Senate Committee ...

amongst others. What is the Cabinet Secretary doing to work closely with other agencies like the National Land Commission (NLC), National Cohesion and Integration Commission (NCIC) among others, to ensure these issues that trigger border clashes along the borders across the country are permanently resolved, so that he does not need to go with the hardware or software to secureng the sector? I thank you.

Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, in as much as I respect the ranking Member, Senator for Kakamega County, I have two points of order.

Mr. Speaker, Sir, thank you very much for this opportunity. I rise under Standing Order No.35. I know you are seized of this matter.

I submited my Adjournment Motion on the operalisation of Bunge Tower because half of your Senators are on medication, especially against allergy. Others do not see sunlight, they ...
