• 16 Jun 2020 in Senate: I do not think it is in order for Sen. Malalah to refer to this particular House as a political gathering, when we are actually deliberating on matters to do with the benefit of the country. I think it is not in order. view
• 16 Jun 2020 in Senate: Last time, he was the Chair of the Committee that was selected and he refused to take over during that time. Talking about juxtaposition is not in order. He should withdraw calling this particular honourable House a political gathering when it comes to deliberating on matters which are very serious and important. view
• 16 Jun 2020 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, it is wrong for Senior Counsel, Sen. Orengo, to cast aspersions on Members of this House as a group of people who are after the head of somebody. We never initiated this Motion; it was initiated by Kirinyaga County Assembly. He should withdraw that. view
• 9 Jun 2020 in Senate: Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir. I would like to make my contribution to this important Statement, which is of great concern. It is quite unfortunate that the doctors who swore to the Hippocratic Oath not to commercialize their services, especially those in the Government facilities, have put money before life. In fact, this is one of the many cases that are happening in most Government facilities. I remember two weeks ago in Bomet County, a patient was taken from Nairobi and after arriving at Bomet, he was admitted like any other normal patient. After two days, the patient died. Seven ... view
• 9 Jun 2020 in Senate: Negligence in our hospitals is serious. We have heard of cases where even after the patient has been asked to collect medicine at the hospitals, they are not able to get it, yet it is there. This is negligence. The person or people who attended to this patient must be answerable. They must take full responsibility of the death of this person. Otherwise, if we leave things to happen like that, the lives of our citizens are at risk, and it will become the order of the day. I would like to ask the Standing Committee of Health that will ... view
• 2 Jun 2020 in Senate: Thank you, Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir; I just want to say that this is a very weighty matter and I think that our Committee will address it effectively. We shall bring a Report to this House. view
• 2 Jun 2020 in Senate: Give us one week, then we shall bring a Report to this House. view
• 2 Jun 2020 in Senate: Thank you, Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir. This is also a very serious and urgent matter affecting our children in the education sector during this particular critical moment of the Coronavirus Disease (COVID-19). Most of these concerns are what we have been discussing in our Committee. We have requested the Cabinet Secretary (CS) for Education to come. Maybe he would have come, but he was also addressing the same issues at the National Assembly. However, because of the seriousness of the matter now, we are going to make a requisition for him to come to our Committee again, so that this ... view
• 2 Jun 2020 in Senate: Thank you, Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, for giving me this opportunity to support the Statement by Sen. Dullo. All over the country, Kenyans are watching Senate to see how it is addressing itself to the COVID-19 pandemic because our counties have lost hope in the national Government. This is because day in, day out, we hear a lot money being spent on this pandemic only in Nairobi City County. If it is not spent in Nairobi, then we are wondering where it is being spend. The little help that we have seen in our counties came from the Women Representatives ... view
• 2 Jun 2020 in Senate: dangerous situation. We expect the Committee to be very strict; give us data, day-to-day improvements, follow the Government to see to it that the money reaches our counties and we should oversight the same. As Sen. Cherargei was saying, governors might see another opportunity to abuse this particular funding. We still have to be very strict on this and protocols must be seriously be observed. We should stop dancing with this deadly disease. I support this Statement and we need to be very strict on this. view
