• 2 Dec 2021 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, the issue of off take has not taken off very well. I am sure that is part of the programme for emergency intervention. Right now, animals are very skinny and dying. As a Government, we should have actually intervened to save the situation in the northern part of Kenya. The situation is still very bad. view
• 2 Dec 2021 in Senate: Insecurity is also another area that we should have actually focussed on as a country. As I am speaking today, in my county even last week, three people were killed and you do not see the reason why people are killing each other. We have security agencies in those areas and we have discussed these issues severally with the Government. People are fighting over pasture, destroying boreholes and nothing is happening. The situation is actually very serious in the northern part of Kenya. We must contain the situation because people’s lives are very important. We need to come up with ... view
• 2 Dec 2021 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, water is life. If you go to the northern part of Kenya, today despite the rains, for the last two weeks before the rains, animals were dying. People do not even get water to drink and this is the 21st Century. Budget is allocated for water at the national level, it is allocated to the county for water, especially sinking of boreholes and getting piped water, but the situation is still very bad in those counties. As a country, we need to come up with strategies to intervene. We should deal with the situation of lack of ... view
• 2 Dec 2021 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, a lot has been done with regard to infrastructure or the road network as the President enumerated, but we need to do a lot especially for my county where we only have one tarmacked road from 2013 to date. The next one is the Isiolo-Modogashe Road, which we do not know how long it is going to take. We have several roads, especially Isiolo-Merti where we have a sub-county and the distance is over 200 kilometres. Accessing health facilities and food whenever there are emergencies is a problem. As a country, we need to audit how to ... view
• 2 Dec 2021 in Senate: am appealing to the Ministry of Roads for Isiolo County to do something for the Merti area that requires a road network. I have seen a lot of improvement in electricity. We have seen mud houses benefit from the rural electrification program in our country. However, as far as implementation is concerned, it is slow. I am talking about electricity promises and the network that were supposed to be done especially in Eldonyiro, Isiolo and other areas that has taken over a year. I have seen schools in my county, especially Ngare Mara Secondary School that is still not connected ... view
