• 13 Oct 2022 in Senate: My point of order is simple. What Sen. Omogeni is saying is in order. However, can he raise a point of order on a Motion that has not been moved? Are we not anticipating debate because the Motion has not been moved? view
• 13 Oct 2022 in Senate: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I would like to take this opportunity to second the Motion by Sen. Ali Roba on the issue of drought. I congratulate the Senator for Mandera for thinking and effecting his thoughts by seeking for adjournment of the House to debate this matter of national importance. One of the issues we must address as a Senate, irrespective of where we belong, is the question of certain parts of the country having to deal with a drought situation and attendant famine. view

• 13 Oct 2022 in Senate: Our forefathers used to sit back and wait for the rains to come before they could start planting. If the rains did not fall, they used to starve and could walk for long distances going to areas that experienced better rains in search of food to feed their families.

I was saying that that study had estimated that with as little as Kshs1.2 billion, we would do sand dams on every river stream to hold all the water in the county, raise the water table and carry out irrigation programmes. Overreliance on rain-fed agriculture, whether in Kitui, Laikipia, Nakuru or anywhere else in this country, will never help us. We shall always sit back and wait for the rains to come.

• 12 Oct 2022 in Senate: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, the Senator for Homa Bay County is a very respected Senator, not just in this House but also outside. view
• 12 Oct 2022 in Senate: Reference is to Sen. M. Kajwang. The Senators to the right of the Deputy Speaker want me to make references about them but I will rise on a point of order to make reference. Standing Order No.101(3) says: “It shall be out of order to use offensive or insulting language whether in respect of Senators or other persons.” Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I find the characterisation of the Senator of Homa Bay County as a person who grabs other peoples’ things very offensive. Can that either be substantiated or withdrawn? view
