• 4 Mar 2025 in Senate: There is a funny story, as I second and make a few comments, on this issue of shareholding and management of EABL and Guinness. view
• 4 Mar 2025 in Senate: Madam Temporary Speaker, so that you know, EABL is synonymous with Kenya. A preacher came from America and had dinner with a colleague who is also a pastor. After eating, he said he would want to wind it down with a Tusker. Everybody in the room was shocked because where they come from, issues of taking something light like a Tusker are not an issue. Compliance by CMA on these regulations within six months is the role of the Committee on Delegated Legislation. Therefore, it should come up through the CMA. On the regulations, we should be careful. As we ... view
• 4 Mar 2025 in Senate: they have grown fat. It is not because they have eaten food, but because of the alcohol poison that is being sold in this country. Murang’a County, where you, Madam Temporary Speaker and Sen. Joe Nyutu come from, has also become a victim of this vice. I want to advise him. As he talks about the ills and criticizes the Government on how the country should be run, he should also be pushing for safe and clean alcoholic drinks within Murang’a and across the country. We do not need to have double standards. I am happy that he is talking ... view
• 4 Mar 2025 in Senate: I warn companies on this issue of insider trading, they must meet the regulations. The Capital Markets Authority (CMA) is the regulatory body. What are they doing? This is their job. Our business in the Senate is to pass the law. The implementers must do their job. I have told you the reason some of us are pushing to ensure that East Africa Breweries Limited (EABL) is run above board. Most of our young people are dying because the alcohol that is being sold in market does not meet the health standards, be it of consumption or even the functionality ... view
• 4 Mar 2025 in Senate: Community. He was also a freedom fighter and we are building a new university in Nandi Hills Town, that will be used for many things. For example, in Nandi, we need many tarmac roads and in many other areas. Nonetheless, KRA must be on high alert to allow the companies to pay taxes in terms of transactions that we are talking about. I want to challenge the Committee on Trade, Industrialisation and Tourism to come up with these regulations and ensure that there is compliance through the capital markets, public offers, listing and disclosures. The companies must disclose. Therefore, EABL ... view
• 26 Feb 2025 in Senate: Thank you, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. I rise pursuant to Standing Order No.53 (1), to seek a Statement from the Standing Committee on Trade, Industrialisation and Tourism, regarding the heated verbal exchange and altercation between the employees of Kenya Airways (KQ) and a Nigerian passenger at Jomo Kenyatta International Airport (JKIA), on 3 February, 2025. In the Statement, the Committee should- (1) Explain the circumstances that led to the heated verbal exchange and altercation between an employee of KQ and a Nigerian passenger at JKIA on 3 February, 2025.

• 26 Feb 2025 in Senate: (3) Report on the allegations by the Nigerian Civil Aviation Authority, (NCAA), that KQ has a long-standing pattern of mistreatment towards Nigerian passengers, which could result in a diplomatic row between Kenya and Nigeria. (4) Explain actions taken by the Kenya Civil Aviation Authority (KCAA), and KQ to ensure airline staff at JKIA and other airports across the country work in a safe and dignified environment. (5) Outline actions being taken to mitigate the potential impact of the incident on the attainment of KQ's strategic objectives as detailed in its strategic recovery project, named Project Kifaru. I thank you. view
• 26 Feb 2025 in Senate: Thank you, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. In answering, I think what the Senate Majority Leader forgot is that the Ministry has also left the President to be explaining the issues of SHA instead of them communicating to the country even on a daily basis. I hope you will take those notes and take it seriously, that as a Ministry you must come out, explain and answer questions so that we do not leave it to the President. Hon. Cabinet Secretary, we can cut you some slack because you just came in, but you must pull up your socks. Finally, there ... view
• 26 Feb 2025 in Senate: functional at the moment and if Kenyans can access them. If they are not functional, just be honest and tell us either one or two are functional. I thank you. view
• 26 Feb 2025 in Senate: Thank you, Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir. I rise to support this Adjournment Motion. On the onset, I want to pass my deepest condolences to the families, friends and the great people of Turkana for the tragic loss of more than 22 Kenyans that we lost and the 15 unaccounted for boats that are yet to be recovered. I treat this as a terrorist attack. It was not a normal attack. It looks like it was well coordinated. Therefore, I want to challenge the National Homeland Security, the KDF, the National Intelligence Service (NIS) and all other organs that are in ... view
