• 21 Oct 2021 in Senate: Madam Deputy Speaker, I second. view
• 19 Oct 2021 in Senate: Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir. In line with the pronouncements by my colleagues, including senior Sen. Wetangula, I find one thing very astonishing. What the Committee has done, they engaged the national Government department and agencies on this Petition, but they continue to say that they will continue to engage the Ministry of Foreign Affairs on the matter of compensation. It has been two years and seven months since the crash. The petitioners are looking for two things; number one and most important to them is closure. This report does not come anywhere near providing any closure on the part ... view
• 19 Oct 2021 in Senate: Thank you, Madam Deputy Speaker. You spoke for all of us when you spoke on this matter. I take this opportunity to convey, on my own behalf and on behalf of the great people of Kitui, our very sincere condolences to the family of Agnes Tirop. I want to say a few things. First, a few minutes ago, the Senator for Nandi, Sen. Cherargei, approached me to make a contribution towards the burial of Agnes Tirop. It is a big shame that we are making small contributions to bury a person who has flown the Kenyan flag so high internationally ... view
• 19 Oct 2021 in Senate: Madam Deputy Speaker, I appeal to the Government of the Republic of Kenya to not punish this girl three times. When she came back after winning for this country, she was abandoned by the state at the airport and there after left to be killed by a person who was supposed to give her protection. The state has now left villagers to raise money to bury this girl. view
• 19 Oct 2021 in Senate: The Government must live up to the expectations of all of us and ensure that they at least pretend to do something at her funeral to at least give her a decent send off. Having said that, the management of sports persons in Kenya is really appalling. When our sportswomen are going to run, play or fight for Kenya, they normally travel with officials from the Ministry of Sports, Culture and Heritage and Athletics Kenya. The officials from the Ministry and the managers of the sports persons fly business class while the sports persons themselves fly economy. When they get ... view
• 19 Oct 2021 in Senate: That kind of shame must be brought to a stop. We must respect the athletes for who they are and accord them the support that they need so that they can continue to fly the Kenyan flag high for that glory to come to us and to them as well. view
• 19 Oct 2021 in Senate: Madam Deputy Speaker, I submit. view
• 19 Oct 2021 in Senate: I wanted to inform Sen. Sakaja, who has just finished but I can still inform him. Kenya is known more for its athletic prowess than anything else. The other day, I was in the streets of Turkey and met a random person who was not communicating properly. I said, ‘I am Kenyan’, the first question they asked me, ‘do you run?’ This is what it is. view
• 13 Oct 2021 in Senate: Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir, on this matter of drought. This is because using your own discretion, again, you have allowed us, the Committee of Agriculture, to travel Wikithuki Irrigation Scheme tomorrow to appraise ourselves on what is happening there and try to deal with the drought situation in that part of this country. Sen. Mutula Kilonzo Jnr. talked about what is obtaining on the ground in terms of what is available and what is not available. It is very important that you order the Committee on Security, Defence and Foreign Relations to make sure that those details are brought ... view
• 6 Oct 2021 in Senate: On a point of order, Mr. Speaker, Sir. I have listened to my friend and brother, the Chairperson of the Committee on National Security, Defence and Foreign Relations say that his Committee will follow the bandits to their hideouts. I do not know whether this House is going to facilitate that. He cannot mislead the nation that this Committee has the capacity to pursue bandits. view
