• 30 Jul 2019 in Senate: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I was making a critical point that the President, whom we believe in, should declare cancer a national disaster, so that we put more focus and energy on it. I agree with the Council of Governors (CoGs) on that. The proposed new Section 22A states that county governments should be part of the process by providing screening, counseling and palliative centres. When a person is under palliative care, they need the support system of the community and family members. How do we ensure that we provide for the welfare of the people? The other day, we ... view
• 25 Jul 2019 in Senate: Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir. I thank Sen. Seneta for bringing this Statement. When that story ran on NTV, it was christened ‘The Red Alert’ . It was scary considering that there is an upsurge of cancer cases and other lifestyle diseases in the country. This is an interesting country because we are reactionary. After the exposé by NTV, the Cabinet Secretary (CS) Ministry of Health, Ms. Sicily Kariuki issued a report which said that they had investigated the issue. This era of being reactionary should stop. Eating something that is poisonous or can lead to infection or other disease ... view
• 25 Jul 2019 in Senate: Asante sana, Bw.Spika. Ningependa kuunga mkono ndugu yangu Seneta wa Mombasa 001 kwa kuleta Hoja hii. Katika Kipengele cha 7 cha Katiba ya Kenya kinasema kuwa Kingereza, Kiswahili na lugha ya ishara ni lugha za Bunge. Nakubaliana tuwe na taratibu ambayo imechapishwa kwa lugha ya Kiswahili na pia mfasiri wa ishara ili watu ambao hawawezi kusikia au kuzungumza waweza kupata nafasi ya kufuatilia yale ambayo yanajadiliwa katika Bunge la Seneti. Ninaunga mkono Seneta wa Makueni ambaye ni gavana mtarajiwa. Ameanza kujipigia debe kwa kusema kuwa wakilishi wa wadi wahakikishe yale yote wanafanya yanaandikwe kwa lugha ya Kiswahili ambayo ni rahisi ... view

• 25 Jul 2019 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I hate to interrupt my good friend and Chairperson, Sen. M. Kajwang'. Does it mean that sitting with Hon. Raila and President Uhuru at the high table is more than the mandate that Kenyans gave us, as the Senate? I thought that this is the higher calling. Could he substantiate? Is it because Baba was present in that meeting or President Uhuru was there? From my understanding, he means that being in the Senate is the lower table. He should substantiate that. view
• 25 Jul 2019 in Senate: Thank you, Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir. I have heard the distinguished Senator for Kiambu County – who has the most votes in this country - Sen. Wamatangi. He was hosting a high delegation today when they were launching one of the Presidents’ Big Four Agenda, which is manufacturing. I have only two comments. Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, I appreciate the report and challenges that the Committee on Roads and Transportation have brought. I thank Sen. Wamatangi for being very steadfast because I know that chairing such a committee is not easy. We were together in the Kenya Roads Bill Mediation, ... view

• 25 Jul 2019 in Senate: Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, I humbly request the Chair for the Committee on Roads and Transportation to assist. He should be part of ensuring that upgrading most of the roads in Nandi County to bitumen standards is done. I believe in his Committee. I hope that he will visit those sites, so that he can verify that there is no work going on in the five roads that were earmarked for upgrade to bitumen standards in Nandi County. Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, I congratulate the Chair of Committee on Roads and Transportation for a job well done. After this, I ... view

Kajwang’ for the Fiduciary Risk Report on audit issues by County Governments for the Financial Years 2012/13 to 2015/16. The Report is very detailed. I thank the Senator for Homa Bay County and the next Governor for this meticulous Report. We celebrate him as a Chairperson. Sen. M. Kajwang’ is very efficient and Senators respect him because of that. I have attended some sessions that he has chaired and I liked the way he conducted them. I know that he will move the prudent ... view
