  • 1 Dec 2021 in Senate: I heard the President saying off-the-cuff in Kiswahili, “ nyinyi msitufungie. view
  • 1 Dec 2021 in Senate: I took that to mean that he was talking to the Ministry of Health to make sure there is no lockdown and that people should be allowed to move around freely. That is okay, but strategic plans must have been put in place by now. This is because we are very near the southern part of Africa. We have a lot of contacts through travelling and business with those Southern Africa countries. To ensure we are not listed among citizens who cannot travel to Europe and other places for business, I would have expected the President to address himself to ... view
  • 1 Dec 2021 in Senate: Madam Temporary Speaker, I commend the President for speaking on the moratorium on the Credit Reference Bureau (CRB) listing for small and micro and Medium Enterprises (SMEs). It was a good thing to give a valve for these SMEs that are resilient to survive these hard economic times. Credit Reference Bureau (CRB) listing is not the only problem SMEs and Kenyans are facing. We also have auctioneers and lenders who are always running after Kenyans who have been made unable to repay their loans. view
  • 1 Dec 2021 in Senate: I wish to talk about lending institutions in Kitui County without casting aspersions on anyone, but putting facts bare. The Kenya Women Finance Trust (KWFT) has done a good job in especially empowering women in Kitui. They have made it possible for women to access credit, build house, but livestock and start small businesses. view
  • 1 Dec 2021 in Senate: However, in the light of the pandemic, many of these women who mean well are unable to service these commitments as promptly as they used to do before.

  • 1 Dec 2021 in Senate: institutions are now not just going after these women. They are going to their homes and taking away iron sheets and doors from their houses, televisions and livestock. As the President protects our people from CRB, it is also important that he would extend that to these lending institutions, especially there are genuine cases of people being unable to honour their commitments on account of this pandemic that has continued to ravage our communities. view
  • 1 Dec 2021 in Senate: On road infrastructure, the President mentioned that since Independence successive governments collectively have built approximately 11,200 kilometers of tarmac road. In the last eight years, his Government has built over 10,550 kilometers. This is impressive and the President and his Government must be congratulated. Without proper road network in this country, it will be impossible for people to transact business in a profitable way. Even as we congratulate the President on the road infrastructure, we must also as representatives of the people continue to bring to the fore the need to continually put a human face to development. That is ... view
  • 1 Dec 2021 in Senate: I appeal that as we construct roads, which is a very commendable thing, let us make sure we find and make available resources for compensation for persons affected by projects. view
  • 1 Dec 2021 in Senate: I do not need to overemphasize the inconveniences on Mombasa Road. It has taken serious sacrifices for Kenyans using the road. Yes, the road is good. It will ease movement once completed, but where is the human face to this infrastructure? As Kenyans make sacrifices for development to happen, it is important that the Government is seen to be considerate about the suffering of people occasioned by projects. view
  • 1 Dec 2021 in Senate: On the “handshake”, I heard the President talk very well about it. I personally have no problem with it. I congratulate the President and the former Prime Minister. Madam Temporary Speaker, I ask for an additional three minutes if possible. The electronic version of the Senate Hansard Report is for information purposesonly. A certified version of this Report can be obtained from the Hansard Editor, Senate. view
