6 May 2015 in Senate:
Thank you very much, Mr. Speaker, Sir. I find it fit that I contribute towards this private Petition coming from one Mr. Rop from Kericho. Mr. Speaker, Sir, you reckon that tea farming, like many other plantation crops, is selectively for that area. So, it is a natural selection for the given area. When a crop has already been adopted through natural selection, it has to grow in that area. There being no other crop, it is important for us to think about what would happen if that community growing that crop will cease to grow the same.

Mr. Speaker, Sir, the Government, therefore, should be up in arms. Let it realize that the farmers, particularly in tea growing areas, including Kirinyaga, are suffering and need redress. Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir.

Mr. Speaker, Sir, as much as you would agree with the procedure of getting such letters from other Members of the Senate, there are times when we do not even get those letters on time. Like what Sen. Musila is---

28 Apr 2015 in Senate:
Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, thank you for allowing me to contribute in support of this Motion. Our worries in the Senate were highlighted when we read in the papers that one of our employees, who has been working here for a long time, is a suspect. We do not know if there are others who are yet to be arrested. That makes us afraid to even to come to this Senate. We are afraid because we are human beings, especially after the Garissa attack. We have had several Motions of Adjournment to discuss security matters in Mandera, Wajir, Garissa and ...

Thank you, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. The issue of fertilizers does not only concern Trans Nzoia, but it is an issue that concerns us all nationwide. I am surprised that by yesterday, the National Cereals and Produce Board (NCPB) depot in Sagana, Kirinyaga, did not have DAP fertilizers. Maybe the Chairperson can tell us why the Sagana Depot has not received fertilizers yet it is used to distribute fertilizers to Nyeri, Murang’a and Embu. It is important to know.

1 Apr 2015 in Senate:
Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, this Petition is long overdue. I would wish that whoever will be answering it, will tell us who these people who are recruiting students are. This is because they are doing so in the name of going out for further studies, to work in embassies and a lot of other lies. There seems to be a conduit which is operating here in Kenya and in those foreign countries. These cases involve mostly women. We also need to ask our embassies in those Arab countries whether they are aware of those cartels and whether they could complain ...

Thank you very much, Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, for that recognition. Sometimes it is good to check if these machines are working collectively. I was the first person to be in this Assembly---

1 Apr 2015 in Senate:
Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, these buttons should be known to us every other time because they keep on changing like goal posts. Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, I am happy you have given me the chance again to contribute towards the Presidential Speech. It was good and I fully support it. This was one of the very rare happenings in Parliament for the President to tell us about what he has achieved in the two years. During that period, the country achieved a lot of development although there were some limitations. All good things were articulated in the Speech. Many times, ...
