• 4 Mar 2020 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, he does not have to blow the trumpet for me. I can do that. It is good to share the experience so that people can understand where we have come from. As he said, after the call, I was promised the position of Deputy Majority Leader, having worked entirely without their support. Let me take this opportunity to thank the Isiolo community and voters for having trusted me as a woman – more so, a Muslim woman – in this position. I really thank them because this can open a way for other women in our counties. ... view
• 4 Mar 2020 in Senate: challenges. For instance, the legal requirement for women, youth and persons with disabilities to access 30 per cent of Government procurement opportunities. Today, men are going for those contracts and it is given to them, which is not fair. Mr. Speaker, Sir, this morning, I was calling the civil society to support women in my county to celebrate the International Women’s Day. Unfortunately, the county government have a budget for gender but cannot support those women. It is really unfortunate. Shame on them! Violation of women’s rights is still happening; gender based violence, Female Genital Mutilation (FGM), husbands beating wives ... view
• 4 Mar 2020 in Senate: Thank you, Madam Temporary Speaker, for this opportunity. I wish to move this Motion which is fairly straight forward. view
• 4 Mar 2020 in Senate: Before I do that, I thank this House for giving us an opportunity, as a Committee, to look into Managed Equipment Services (MES) project in this country. We have done a lot in terms of investigation on the project. We have visited several parts of the country and summoned various witnesses who appeared before us. So far, --- view
• 4 Mar 2020 in Senate: Sorry, Madam Temporary Speaker. I think I was in a hurry to finish this. Madam Temporary Speaker, I beg to move the following Motion- THAT, AWARE that the Senate resolved to establish a select Committee comprising nine (9) Senators to investigate and establish the facts surrounding the leasing of the Medical Equipment, in the now 119 beneficiary hospitals country wide; APPRECIATING, that the mandate of the Select Committee is due to lapse on Friday, 6th March 2020; The electronic version of the Senate Hansard Report is for information purposesonly. A certified version of this Report can be obtained from the ... view
• 4 Mar 2020 in Senate: REGRETING, that due to heavy workload and sheer magnitude of the assignment, the Committee is yet to table its report in the House and requires more time to hold hearings with crucial witnesses, amongst them Mr. James Macharia, EGH Cabinet Secretary in the Ministry of Transport, Infrastructure, Housing, Urban Development and Public Works, Dr. Nicholas Muraguri, CBS Principal Secretary, in the Ministry of Lands and Physical Planning and Amb. (Dr.) Cleopas Mailu; NOW THEREFORE, the Senate resolves to renew the mandate of the Committee by a further period of thirty (30) days to enable it conclude its work and table ... view
• 4 Mar 2020 in Senate: money was used for this purpose. When the Attorney-General of this country says he was not involved, clearly, that is breach of procedures. The Attorney-General actually requested to be given more time because he does not even have copies of those documents in his own office. The Committee wanted the backing of the Attorney-General to look at those contracts to see whether the due procedures were followed. For example, the Seven Seas Technologies Limited’s contact was cancelled recently as a result of investigation by this House. The Attorney-General came out clearly saying that the contract was fraud abinitio . He ... view
• 20 Feb 2020 in Senate: Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir. I wish to join my colleagues in commenting on this Statement. It is serious for a Chairperson of a Committee to stand before us and appear helpless. view
• 20 Feb 2020 in Senate: It looks like your orders are nothing to some people in the Government. The issue of locusts is a disaster in this country. However, it looks like people are not bothered. It started with a few of our counties, but as of yesterday, 20 counties are affected. We are always complaining about drought, disasters and all that, but this is also another disaster and two months down the line, we will have famine in the country. view
• 20 Feb 2020 in Senate: For some of us who come from pastoralists communities, right now, our animals do not have anywhere to graze. Members of the public are using crude methods to chase away these locusts, when we have Government machineries in place and funds that can assist communities. This is serious. view
