• 17 Nov 2021 in Senate: We wish to assure the House that we are relieved that through the efforts of the Committee, there has been some relief on the cost of fuel and electricity. We hope that before the end of the year, as has been promised by the Government, these two products will come to affordable prices. view
• 17 Nov 2021 in Senate: Madam Deputy Speaker, I beg to move. view
• 13 Oct 2021 in Senate: Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir. I rise to support this Petition. It is a sad affair that the foundation of education, where children are supposed to be nurtured properly, is where this kind of frustration is as raised by the Kericho ECD teachers. view
• 13 Oct 2021 in Senate: I wonder whether Kenya will ever stand on its feet with the way the county governments have been formulated. I note that even in the Building Bridges Initiative (BBI), not much was done to streamline some of the issues that we keep on witnessing. view
• 13 Oct 2021 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, every county in this country would have been ten times better than it is today. However, resources have been disbursed to the counties and let loose without strict Government regulations. These regulations demand that any officer who is making a decision on public resources should be answerable to the law of the land, and that actions should be taken. view
• 13 Oct 2021 in Senate: 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
• 13 Oct 2021 in Senate: From my point of view, in most counties, 80 per cent of the resources that go into the county get held up serving the basic needs. That is why we have this outcry of ECD teachers, not just in Kericho. Even in Nyeri County, it is the same thing. The underpayment of these teachers and not recognizing them is a perennial problem. view
• 13 Oct 2021 in Senate: I feel and fear that this is the beginning of deterioration of education. My county, Nyeri, should be at the top in the country. When I was in university, 15 per cent of the population at the University of Nairobi (UoN) actually came from my county. It is nowhere near that case today, and it starts with the frustration of teachers. view
• 13 Oct 2021 in Senate: A teacher is the most important element in the whole education system of a child. Therefore, I hope that the Committee on Education will look into this matter outside Kericho in a wholesome manner and come up with serious recommendations which this House should act upon. The Executive should also take the necessary action that will be needed. view
• 13 Oct 2021 in Senate: Thank you. view
