• 22 May 2025 in Senate: Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir. I support the Statement by Sen. Okoiti Okiya Omtatah Andrew on the issue of state of investigation into Angata Barikoi killings in Narok County. In as much as we continue to send our deepest condolences and sympathies to the people of Ang’ata Barikoi, it is sad that after they are buried, their issues have been forgotten. Mr. Speaker, Sir, you even saw what happened with the Daasanach, 41 people are yet to be recovered. A few people were killed the other day in Tondonyang. It is very unfortunate that in this country, the Directorate of ... view
• 22 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
• 22 May 2025 in Senate: As the families continue to grieve, we must be told what the Government is doing. It is very unfortunate that even the Ministry of Interior and National Administration led by Cabinet Secretary, Hon. Murkomen, gave us a bravado statement when he was in North Rift by saying those people wanted to attack the police. How can you attack the police who armed with guns with hands and stones? That is why I said transferring incompetence to the Ministry of Interior and National Administration is dangerous because lives will be lost. When drones are stolen, they can be fixed at a ... view
• 20 May 2025 in Senate: Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir. It is good that we are discussing serious issues. One of the biggest agenda of President William Ruto was on fixing the mess in farming through guaranteed minimum returns, coffee and tea sector. The President continued to perform exceptionally very well in fulfilling the agenda. Even today, a few hours ago, I congratulate His Excellency the President because he continues to prove wrong the naysayers by launching the 2010 Mukuru Estate Affordable Housing Programme. The unfortunate part is that the Senator of Nairobi City County did not turn up, but the entire leadership of Nairobi ... view
• 20 May 2025 in Senate: I am coming there. I am bringing it home. view
• 20 May 2025 in Senate: I wanted to show the nation that the President continues to fulfill his agenda. One of the agendas apart from affordable housing is guaranteed minimum returns, the coffee and tea sector reforms. We continue to prove our naysayers wrong. Even in the dairy sector, it is a fulfillment that will not go unnoticed. Mr. Speaker, Sir, you should rein in Sen. Eddy. He is shouting, yet he is the Chairman of the Committee on Roads, Transport and Housing. I did not see him there. I also want to correct a total misnomer that has been advanced by the Senior Counsel ... view
• 20 May 2025 in Senate: I hope Cabinet Secretary Mutahi Kagwe will correct this travesty of justice against the farmers in Nandi and across the nation. In fact, as we talk, a number of cooperative societies, from Kipchele and Kabunyeria Cooperative Society Coffee, and many others across Nandi County are yet to get the start-up. Mr. Speaker, Sir, I have challenged the Cabinet Secretary in charge of Ministry of Cooperatives, Micro, Small and Medium Enterprises, Hon. Oparanya, to bring a special package to jump-start most of our cooperative societies which are struggling. Under guaranteed minimum returns, that the President, by the covenant that he had ... view
• 20 May 2025 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, the Ministry of Interior and National Administration should form what we call an anti-coffee theft unit to protect our farmers the way we have done for anti-stock theft unit. You have seen deaths even in Nyamira, Murang’a and in Meru, where your Deputy Speaker comes from. Coffee is a matter of life and death. The Ministry of Interior and National Administration must form anti-coffee theft police unit at least, so that our farmers can feel safe. I think also the Ministry of Interior and National Administration must give powers to the Inspector General of Police, which of ... view
• 20 May 2025 in Senate: Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir, and the Deputy Speaker, Sen. Kathuri Murungi for that correction. I meant that there should be a specific unit to protect our coffee factories and where coffee is being stored in order to prevent theft. A police unit should be formed to prevent the theft of coffee in this country. The Ministry of Interior and National Administration can start with coffee factories for now and where coffee is being given. I agree that should be the least we can do. The principle so that I qualify my argument; is that we are not talking about ... view
• 20 May 2025 in Senate: taxation is killing our people. Remember the dissent that we had last year from the young people over the finance Bill in this country because of taxation. This issue of increasing levies, whenever you walk to a coffee or a hustler kiosk here in Ngara and you look at the walls, they have become mosaic because of the many taxations that Kenyans are paying. We need to stop this culture that we can grow the country through overtaxing Kenyans. We need to overgrow that. You will see someone paying public health, they are paying the county government and the Music ... view
