• 16 Feb 2022 in Senate: comes from God. Therefore, it goes without saying that although we need basic or minimum requirements leadership--- I have seen many political parties have advertised that when you are looking for a certain position, you must have certain minimum requirements or qualifications. It is very important, and I agree with Sen. M. Kajwang’ that political parties must agree on their requirements for any of the aspirants that are running for offices. This is a straightforward amendment. Leaders come and go but the bottom line is service to the people. In the place where I come from, one of the MCAs ... view

• 16 Feb 2022 in Senate: Going into the future, we should encourage our colleagues; who because of different factors were not able to pay school fees because we are in leadership. If you walk around your county, you will meet a number of students who are brilliant but because of lack of school fees or other factors, they were unable to go to higher institutions of learning. I agree with Sen. Murkomen that some of us who grew up through bottom up or hustlers, we had to stop our education at some level so that others can continue or you can go to a kibarua ... view

• 16 Feb 2022 in Senate: but when I switch to my local dialect, I will be able to explain to them what happens in the Senate, what needs to be done and the legislations we are pushing. The bottom line is that one should learn to read and write in English, Kiswahili and their mother tongue. In fact, Sen. Murkomen should have added that. I can tell you for free that on this, some people will lose. At the end of the day, even if we come to the Senate, you should also be able to go back and communicate to the people. We do ... view

• 16 Feb 2022 in Senate: who want to run for these seats. I know many people will not agree with us but let them be given the opportunity to run. Let the people decide. Even if you know how to read and write, we have competent staff of Parliament that can ensure that anything that you want to legislate will be processed. Somebody can argue that people who will be elected might have limited scope of education, therefore it will affect their legislative output. That is not the point. The point is that the person who needs to read and write will have enough professional ... view
• 15 Feb 2022 in Senate: Thank you, Madam Temporary Speaker. I congratulate the sponsors of the Bill, Sen. (Dr.) Musuruve and my neighbour, Sen. (Prof.) Kamar. This is a very straight forward Bill. The reason for this Bill is found under Article 43 of the Constitution on Economic and Social Rights. The right to access to quality education must be defined. The establishment of the Economic and Social Council of Human Rights is a good thing. We are moving from civil, red and blue rights, as envisaged. This is very important because we are now moving to economic and social rights. Quality education is not ... view
• 15 Feb 2022 in Senate: Madam Deputy Speaker, I can see the Government is implementing the Competency Based Curriculum (CBC). They are doing the rapid initiative in terms of adding classrooms for junior secondary schools as per the CBC programme. However, I have not seen the Bill of Quantities (BQs) that the Ministry of Education is using. I have seen some of their BQs but not any parts where they are saying those classrooms must be disability friendly where disabled children can access. I know the Ministry of Education is watching. Even if they give local contractors to build those schools, they must ensure that ... view
