• 13 Nov 2018 in Senate: Thank you, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. I stand guided. You know that my generation grew up using both English and Kiswahili which is a language called view
• 13 Nov 2018 in Senate: As I was saying, I like Clause 5 (a). We should brand our counties based on where we come from. Before independent and other advertisers do an advertisement, for example, in Kisumu County, Kisii County or Narok County, they should learn the salient features so that when they come up with advertisements, they assist in branding some of these issues. The electronic version of the Senate Hansard Report is for information purposesonly. A certified version of this Report can be obtained from the Hansard Editor, Senate. view
• 13 Nov 2018 in Senate: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, in that part, there is also the protection of environmental issues. It is important that the Chair of the Committee on Roads and Transportation, Sen. Wamatangi, handles the issue of roads vis-a-vis environment and development. view
• 13 Nov 2018 in Senate: There was a contestation regarding the Standard Gauge Railway (SGR) passing through the Nairobi National Park. The issue of environmental conservation vis-a-vis development became a serious debate and discussion. Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, even as we advertise, we should also protect the environment. There should be a way that the National Environment Management Authority (NEMA) and other organs that protect the environment are involved.

• 13 Nov 2018 in Senate: On the issue of discretion, we should not give too much power to the CECs because we know how politics and business interests operate in this country. Under Clause 19, the county assemblies may enact specific legislation for the implementing the Act in the respective counties. Many of them, including the county assemblies of the City County of Nairobi, Kakamega and Homa Bay have experienced crisis and chaos. They have been busy impeaching speakers. I hope that they will find time to enact this legislation. Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, Clause 18 states- ―A person who contravenes any provision of this ... view
• 13 Nov 2018 in Senate: exceeding six months or to a fine not exceeding two hundred thousand shillings or to both.‖ I propose that the fine of Kshs200,000 should be increased to Kshs5 million, so that we do not have people who deface or destroy other people‘s advertisements worth millions of shillings. During the campaigns, as Sen. Wetangula said, people spent a lot of money to advertise on billboards. Why should we make it cheap for somebody to deface adverts? The punishment should be painful. view
• 13 Nov 2018 in Senate: Mr. Deputy Speaker Sir, let us also urge the companies that advertise, to do it with decorum and morality that it deserves. I know that in the City County of Nairobi, people may appear lenient, but we should ensure that the adverts are conservative and adhere to the African values. Yesterday, I asked the Kenya Union of Post-Primary Education Teachers (KUPPET) about the rise in cases of teenage pregnancies and they blamed it on social media and the internet.

• 13 Nov 2018 in Senate: Mr. Deputy Speaker Sir, I urge the Members of National Assembly that there are more important things than the quality of food that we eat in Parliament.

They should concern themselves with the quality of the Bills that we are giving them, and not the githeri that we eat in Parliament. Those are some of the issues--- view
