• 28 May 2025 in Senate: The electronic version of the Senate Hansard Report is for information purposesonly. A certified version of this Report can be obtained from the Director, Hansard and AudioServices, Senate. view
• 28 May 2025 in Senate: The Kenya Medical Practitioners and Dentists Council (KMPDC) did not even order for remedial courses. I expected the Senate Standing Committee on Health to recommend remedial courses. God forbid, how many patients have gone through their hands and had negligence as this? They were even supposed to suspend the license of these doctors and medical team, including the nurses. They should have even given penalties and fines. Under Section 20 of Medical Practitioners and Dentists Act, Cap. 253, which was revised in 2019, there must be a proper penalty. I know, Sen. (Dr.) Boni Khalwale understands this. We should have ... view

• 28 May 2025 in Senate: I know in every profession, there are crooks within the profession, including my own profession of law, engineers, medical practitioners or even structural engineers. However, we must punish, so that we do not lose lives. Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, as I have been saying, when you are handling human life, it is so sensitive because when you lose somebody, you never recover them. Other things can be recovered. For instance, when a building collapses, you can rebuild and when a road stalls, you can rebuild. As we pray for this nation in the national prayer breakfast, we must confront serious ... view
• 27 May 2025 in Senate: Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Sir, I want to support the Statement by Sen. (Dr.) Boni Khalwale on the issues of employment of staff under SHA. We need the NHIF staff to be given priority. Mr. Speaker, Sir, it is unfair to subject them to a double recruitment process. I hope the Public Service Commission (PSC) and Social Health Authority (SHA) will look into that issue and ensure that there is proper transition. I think the humane way of doing things is to allow the staff that were in National Health Insurance Fund (NHIF) to move to their same job capacity ... view
• 27 May 2025 in Senate: I assure the country that SHA is working. Over the weekend, I was in one of my local hospitals in Kapsabet, the Kapsabet County Referral Hospital. The naysayers have now changed tune; they are saying that it is working, it is not only just effective, we are doing very well. Everything has a challenge. Mr. Speaker, Sir, I thank the Kikuyu artist, Karagu Muraya, who was with the Deputy President, Prof. Kithure Kindiki. He said that SHA is working. I ask the former Deputy President to stop profiling Kikuyu musicians for saying that SHA is working. They should look for ... view
• 27 May 2025 in Senate: Thank you, Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir. I will make my comments in five minutes. Before I make a comment, allow me, on my behalf and that of my family, and on behalf of the great people of Nandi County, to pass my deepest condolences to the family of the late Father Alois Cheruiyot Bett, who was unfortunately killed in Tot area. He was the parish priest of St. Matthias Mulumba Parish in Tot, Elgeyo, Marakwet County. I condole with the family, the Catholic Diocese of Eldoret, led by Bishop Dominic Mengich, the Catholic Church, and the entire region, especially Nandi ... view
• 27 May 2025 in Senate: I am happy he knows. They are paying Kshs200 million on tax to the Keya Revenue Authority (KRA). Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, we need to be told why we are getting zero. I do not know if Migori County has minerals, but imagine Narok County has no royalties. I have seen it in Kakamega though. Where is the Chairperson of the Standing Committee on Finance and Budget? We must be told. Secondly, we are saying that the gold mines of Nandi must benefit the people of Nandi. The people of Narok must benefit. They must benefit the people of Kakamega ... view
