• 25 Feb 2016 in Senate: Thank you, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, for the opportunity. First, I want to appreciate Sen. Khaniri for being the eye of the people of Vihiga County. As we consider all petitions that have been brought to this House, it would be important for the relevant committees to look into the matters raised as soon as possible. We have so many petitions from the counties and people expect us to act on them as soon as possible. It is our mandate, as the Senate, to protect the counties and their governments. It is very unfortunate that county governments have resorted to ... view
• 24 Feb 2016 in Senate: Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, pursuant to Standing Order No.45(2)(b), I rise to seek a Statement from the Chairperson of the Standing Committee on Labour and Social Welfare regarding the collection of levies from businesses such as bars, kiosks, barber shops and public transport operators for playing music. In the Statement, the Chairperson should state:- (1) The role of the Music Copyright Society of Kenya (MCSK) as well as the Kenya Association of Music Producers and Performers Rights Society of Kenya (KAMPPRISK) with regard to collection of performance levies. (2) Who is entitled to collect the levies collected by the two ... view
• 10 Feb 2016 in Senate: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I rise to second the Employment (Amendment) Bill (Senate Bill No. 1 of 2015) brought by Sen. Wangari. She has thought it through maybe because she is a mother and she has been thinking about these other children who do not have biological mothers. Article 53(1)(e) of the Constitution states:- “Every child has the right— (e) to parental care and protection, which includes equal responsibility of the mother and father to provide for the child, whether they are married to each other or not.” This Article does not point to the fact that it must be ... view
• 5 Nov 2015 in Senate: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I also rise to appreciate the Petition that has been brought by the nurses and health officers from Uasin Gishu. It is high time that the Committee on Health looks into matters concerning health in a broad and comprehensive way. When the Committee eventually brings a report to the House, we shall debate it and solve some of the issues that keep arising. There are many cases of patients dying in hospitals. I even sought a Statement regarding such an incident and I am still waiting for the final answer from the Committee. In the news ... view
• 5 Nov 2015 in Senate: Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, may I inform Sen. Kittony that Sen. Njoroge had already confirmed that he is the one who played a role in the removal of former Sen. Kipchumba. view
• 5 Nov 2015 in Senate: Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, thank you for giving me this opportunity. I will start by appreciating Sen. (Prof.) Anyang'-Nyong’o for showing how proud he is to be Kenyan. This is not the first time he is bringing such a Motion. I remember in the last Session, he also brought a Motion to appreciate our heroes in the country. Former Sen. Kipchumba is a special person to us, as Members of the Senate. That is why we are giving him special recognition. We celebrate heroes in this country, and we celebrated a number of people on 20th October to mark the ... view
• 5 Nov 2015 in Senate: I almost said “Sen. Kipchumba Murkomen.” The UNICEF and WHO have recognized him and it is time we appreciated the usage of the vaccines that are produced by WHO and procured by UNICEF. They have proved to be safe and effective. The UNICEF has done its bit. It is time that the President of this country together with the Committee that recognizes heroes awarded Sen. Kipchumba with the Order of the Golden Warrior (OGW) because of the good work he has done. I believe that all of you concur with me--- view
• 5 Nov 2015 in Senate: I accept to be informed. view
• 5 Nov 2015 in Senate: Thank you, Sen. Lesuuda for informing me. That just confirms that the Government should consider giving Sen. Kipchumba the highest award in the country, which is the Order of the Golden Warrior. As Senators and Kenyans, let us live to make a difference in our country. I support the Motion. view
• 13 Oct 2015 in Senate: Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir. I have tried to interrogate the reply given by the Chair of the Health Committee and it is very unfortunate that the Cabinet Secretary (CS) together with the Kenya Medical Practitioners and Dentists Board are trying to protect the sins committed by this hospital in particular, and the gynecologist who did the caesarean. It is very clear in my question No.3 that the patient was given food and that is for a fact because during the postmortem which we followed keenly, is that food particles were found in the system. The doctor from St Francis ... view
