• 30 Mar 2017 in Senate: Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, I am ready to issue the statement but the questioner is not present. It will depend on when the --- view
• 30 Mar 2017 in Senate: Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, I am present and I have the answer so he can go ahead. All what he needs to do is to read and I will be happy. This would be the only one which is here for the day going by what is happening. view
• 30 Mar 2017 in Senate: Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, on a point of order. I had already expressed my disapproval as regards that allegation. It requires very serious substantiation. I am a member of Jubilee. I feel insulted when it is said that we go to River Road. I have never been to that place for that kind of confirmation. Can he first of all apologise and withdraw? There are so many Jubilee members here. view
• 30 Mar 2017 in Senate: On a point of order, Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir. I am not John. I am Sen. Daniel Karaba. view
• 30 Mar 2017 in Senate: Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, I have two or three clarifications I would like to seek. The first one is on what the Government is doing now that the people are suffering and they have no food to eat because the drought has persisted. Secondly, is the construction of the dam a permanent solution to the water problem? The story of constructing the dam has been there for a long time. Could the Chairman undertake to give a definite time by telling us whether it will be next month or in May? view
• 30 Mar 2017 in Senate: Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, my other concern is that as a Senator, I am supposed to go around the ministries whether they are aware that Kirinyaga and the rice farmers of Mwea are suffering as a result of shortage. Surely, is that right? Can you make a ruling and tell us whether that is the additional work of a Senator? Do we not have workers in the field who can provide that information to the Ministry Headquarters? view
• 30 Mar 2017 in Senate: Madam Temporary Speaker, I beg to move that the National Assembly Amendments to the County Early Childhood Education Bill (Senate Bill No.32 of 2014) be now considered. This is a Bill that was passed by the Senate and referred to the National Assembly for concurrence. The National Assembly considered the Bill and effected 53 amendments thereon which have essentially altered the Bill from the version passed by the Senate. The Committee on Education has considered these amendments and agreed with them. I now urge Senators to pass this Motion to enable us to consider the Nation Assembly amendments of the ... view

• 30 Mar 2017 in Senate: Madam Temporary Speaker, I thank the Senators for contributing a lot on this Bill. As they said, this is a very important Bill. If considered, it will save us a lot of problems. Earlier constructions of classrooms were haphazardly done. Some pupils did not even have class rooms. They would even sit under trees and be taught by people who were not educated or qualified to handle the early childhood education. Therefore, once this Bill is passed it will enhance the much awaited effort that Kenyans are yearning for so that all pupils in Kenya are treated equally. I, therefore, ... view
