• 11 Apr 2023 in Senate: and contrary to Article 43. Doctors have not been paid and are not in hospitals to serve the people. What is happening in Nandi County is unfortunate. If someone walks to a hospital suffering from malaria and they are not treated, that amounts to abuse of Article 43. view

• 11 Apr 2023 in Senate: Any government, be it national or county, has an obligation to promote human rights. When you look at limitations and fundamentals of human rights, we enjoy these rights because Article 43 of the Constitution is specific on the right to healthcare. I am told that the Women Representative for Kirinyaga County will take a Bill to the National Assembly proposing to fine people who deny medical emergency services. There are many accidents happening in the country. Some of the private hospitals demand deposits before attending to patients. We must have these conversations. Both state and non-state actors must be obligated ... view
• 11 Apr 2023 in Senate: On a point of order, Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir. I do not know why Sen. Tabitha Mutinda is coming in between me and you. This is violation of the Standing Orders. Thank God, you did not see. view
• 11 Apr 2023 in Senate: Mr. Temporary Speaker, the issue of reproductive healthcare is emotive. Most of us are Christians and Muslims. Religious persons do not want to have the conversation on whether we should train students on reproductive healthcare in schools. The MP for Homa Bay Town, Hon. Kaluma, is proposing a Bill to ban teaching biology and reproductive healthcare. I have seen an abridged version on the issue of Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender, Queer or Questioning, Intersex, Asexual (LGBTQIA). When we talk about reproductive healthcare, should we include men who marry men or women who marry men as part of reproductive healthcare? view
• 11 Apr 2023 in Senate: President Museveni said that he will lock in a house two men who will marry until the day they will give birth. That is when he will allow LGBTQIA relationships. I have never understood what a man would look for in another man. I want to thank the President because when he was in Germany, he said that we respect the cultures and values of other societies. They should respect ours as well. They view

• 11 Apr 2023 in Senate: should tell us why it is a sin for Africans to be polygamous, but not a sin for them to be members of the LGBTQIA. This is a conversation we must have. When we discuss reproductive healthcare, we must look at the progress we have made. Article 24 of the Constitution talks about limitation of rights and fundamental freedoms. It does not mean that you abuse a right. Where your right ends, another person’s right begins. Sen. Mumma is a Member of the Speaker’s Panel. Two weeks ago, they were on the streets. They have a right under Article 37, ... view
• 11 Apr 2023 in Senate: On the issue of housing, I would like to thank the President since this agenda is on top of his priorities. Every Kenyan should have access to affordable housing. We will start with Migori County, so that they can see how the Government is working. People like Sen. Oketch Gicheru are good friends of mine. He is a fine gentleman and an academic par excellence. When they hear about development, they become allergic to it. We will ensure that we have affordable housing. We are having a conversation as equals in this House. When you look at Article 43(3), it ... view
• 11 Apr 2023 in Senate: When you talk about freeing people from hunger as the Bill proposes --- It is sad that more than four million Kenyans are facing starvation and hunger. We want to thank the donors and the Office of the Deputy President who have been doing a lot to provide food to people and animal feed. There is a bipartisan committee that has been formed. I do not know if Sen. Oketch Gicheru is a Member. Maybe he will brief me over a cup of tea because I am not a Member. Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, you are a Member of the ... view
