• 10 Nov 2020 in Senate: Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir, for this opportunity. I want to thank Sen. George Khaniri, my neighbour, for this Statement on the issues surrounding the tea sector. We agree that tea is one of the economic backbones, especially in Nandi County. Three quarters of Nandi County is covered by tea. There are many bottlenecks, and I think that most of them are by the legal regime. The other day, I saw that the Cabinet Secretary (CS) in charge of Agriculture trying to bring tea regulations, which created a tea storm in a tea cup, because of the various interest groups ... view
• 10 Nov 2020 in Senate: The fourth point that I want to make is that I agree with the argument that we need to introduce minimum guaranteed returns. I am happy that Sen. Omogeni has received salvation, because some people were blindly supporting the Building Bridges Initiative (BBI) for the sake of other things. I am happy that reality is coming up.

Sen. Faki had hosted us in Mombasa County and I confirm it was a harrowing experience. It is sad that it is happening in Kisumu. I hope the Committee on Justice and Legal Affairs will follow up so that we have a report. view
• 10 Nov 2020 in Senate: I concur that the killings continue to happen especially in Nandi where two young men were killed. There is one that was killed by the police in Lessos and investigations are ongoing. Arrests have been made on the border of Vihiga and Nandi counties. view
• 10 Nov 2020 in Senate: On Friday, 30th October, 2020, a man by the name Lawrence Kipkirui Agui Tuluso was brutally murdered by armed robbers. He was a security officer at Chemomi Tea Estate. Up to now, the phone has not been tracked. When some of us were arrested, it was easy for the police to track. The victim was killed with his hands tied. Madam Deputy Speaker, you will remember that there were brutal murders of tea managers in tea estates in Nandi. We are seeing that creeping up. Following this Statement by Sen. Nyamunga, we expect that these investigations must be done expeditiously. ... view
