• 27 Jun 2023 in Senate: From where I sit, we should not allow that Statement to go unchallenged. This is because there are many misgivings and casting aspersions on the police and the Government and that should not go unchallenged. Therefore, Mr. Speaker, Sir, I request your direction since Sen. Faki is still on the Floor. In the Statement, he cast aspersions and misgivings by the police. Therefore, you should allow us to ventilate on that Statement and seek further clarification. We are aware that the people in question are not from mainstream media stations. They are people of the Azimio la Umoja-One Kenya Coalition ... view

• 27 Jun 2023 in Senate: Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir. From the onset, I want to congratulate Sen. Crystal Asige who continues to distinguish herself in issues of legislation, representation and oversight as per Article 96 of the Constitution. It is worth noting that Sen. Crystal Asige is a product of the artistic world. I want to commend her because she is putting her best foot forward to show that people who are differently abled can perform their best. Last time I said that when you listen to her songs, especially since tomorrow is a public holiday, you can enjoy her creativity. Even if you ... view
• 27 Jun 2023 in Senate: The youthful Senators like Sen. Crystal Asige and myself, have been accused by young people of doing little or nothing to put the issues of young people forward. Having served in leadership for a long time in my short life in this world, this is a question many young people ask. A few minutes ago, I hosted young people in my office who were contracted under the COVID-19 pandemic as healthcare providers. Their contracts unfortunately came to an end. The youth always ask what we are doing for them. This is one of the ways we can answer them by ... view
• 27 Jun 2023 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, 24 per cent of Kenya’s population is between the age of 18 to 34 years. This is according to the Kenya population census of 2019. Since young people form a huge and an important section of our population most of the policies and legislation should be put in place to assist them flourish. view

• 27 Jun 2023 in Senate: Clause 3 highlights the issue of innovation. As a country, we have a success story of Mpesa and many other innovations, which lack support of the Government, other State actors and non-state actors to make them a success. view
• 27 Jun 2023 in Senate: Mpesa is a product of innovation and creative thinking. The issue of patents and patenting is very important. You will find young people come up with a product or an application, but it becomes a challenge for them to register or patent it with the Kenya Intellectual Property Institute. As a result, many young people end up losing their patent rights. Later, you find out that the people who benefit from the innovation is not the young people who innovated it. This is an important Bill. I want to thank Sen. Crystal Asige because the President His Excellency William Ruto ... view
• 27 Jun 2023 in Senate: . I saw a report by Kenya National Bureau of Statistics that most expenses for young people are incurred on buying internet and bundles, apart from kupiga sherehe like what they were doing in Naivasha over the weekend. However, now we are removing this expense on young people by giving them access to ICT hubs. This means they can innovate and sell their product to the world. I shall discuss with Sen. Crystal Asige to ensure we push the authority that registers intellectual property, so that when young people produce patents, they are protected by the law. This is because ... view
