• 31 Jul 2024 in Senate: Is there any Member, I do not think there is a Member of the committee. view
• 31 Jul 2024 in Senate: Are you a Member of the committee? You can confirm if you visited Nyamira. Maybe I did not get it right. view
• 31 Jul 2024 in Senate: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, that was a big oversight on the part of the committee. I hope you can revisit and make a physical visit to Nyamira. Sen. Dullo has left. She and Sen. Chute come from counties where they have community land. Community land should be used for the benefit of the people who reside in those counties. If you read the report, the committee confirms that this is a community land gazetted with a title under the County Government of Nyamira. However, KPS has taken over the land. If you read through the report, they have diverted a ... view
• 31 Jul 2024 in Senate: They do not even have a title deed. If you read through, the committee has made a clear finding that not even the County Government of Nyamira has given any allotment letter to KPS.They are using their guns to take over our wetland. This is something we must strongly condemn. I was told when I was in school that the Constitution is our supreme law and we all must abide by its provisions. The Constitution clearly states in Article 63 that the only way public land can be used is if it has been transferred from a specific community by ... view
• 31 Jul 2024 in Senate: “Ensure sustainable exploitation, utilisation, management and conservation of the environment and natural resources, and ensure the equitable sharing of the accruing benefits.” view
• 31 Jul 2024 in Senate: I would like to understand the Cabinet Secretary who has allowed KPS to destroy our catchment in Nyamira, contrary to provisions of the Constitution. The word used implies mandatory. Article 69(1)(f) states that the State shall- view
• 31 Jul 2024 in Senate: “Eliminate processes and activities that are likely to endanger the environment.” view
• 31 Jul 2024 in Senate: The activities of KPS on Isiany Wetland in Nyamira are endangering the environment. I expected the committee led by Sen. John Methu to call out the Government for failing to protect the environment. Most parts of this country have what we call water stress because the water tables are deep. The report confirms that the water table in this area is very favourable. If we allow KPS and others to destroy this catchment area, we will not be fair and kind to the people of Nyamira. The committee has observed that there has been a lot of dumping. There is ... view
• 31 Jul 2024 in Senate: have received Kshs150 million. I hope that money has not ended up in the pockets of people in the County Government of Nyamira. Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, in this country, people exchange bribes every minute, both in the national and county governments. You receive money from a donor to assist in climate change, but you pocket it as a governor with your officers. Why can he not take steps to direct the climate change money to rehabilitate this wetland? We want money that is given to us by our donors to impact the lives of the people who reside in ... view
• 31 Jul 2024 in Senate: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I, therefore, pray that this committee should decide. This Petition is so important that it necessitates them visiting Nyamira physically to ascertain the physical status of this wetland and also report one-on-one on the activities being undertaken that pose a threat to this wetland. I support. view
