• 1 Nov 2023 in Senate: Sen. Kinyua, thank you for empathising and sympathising with your brothers and sisters from Nyamira County. That issue is causing a lot of concern in Nyamira County. I know that I should not be saying issues of security in my contribution to this Bill. However, I am relating this to factors that can contribute to young girls becoming parents. If you lose your parents at a very early age and you do not have somebody to support you, it can lead to something else. I thank the security operators in Nyamira County, especially the (DCC), Florence Obunga and Divisional Criminal ... view
• 1 Nov 2023 in Senate: If this Bill is enacted and we have partnerships within the national Government and county governments, it will be a good thing. You cannot condemn a child to stop her education simply because she has become a parent while she is a child. These mistakes happen in life. I can tell you that I know very prominent Kenyans whose parents became parents when they were children at 17 years old. However, because they were given a chance, they were able to finish school and educate those children who are now prominent citizens in the society. There has been this stereotype ... view

• 1 Nov 2023 in Senate: our days in this world are limited. After 70 years, the Bible says you only live with pain and suffering. So, we must ensure that we bring up the future generation. I am impressed that this Bill brings to prominence the role that our County Executive Committees play at the county. This is because they are people who understand and live in the counties. Every time we want to solve a problem, there has been this idea of saying that we must run to the national Government. Let us support devolution. Let us give hope to our people that devolution ... view

• 18 Oct 2023 in Senate: Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir, for giving me the opportunity. I take this opportunity to welcome the students from the counties of Kisii and Nyamira, on my own behalf and on behalf of my brother, the Senator for Kisii County. These are our future leaders. When we used to be in school, we used to be told that we are the future leaders. Least did I know that one day I will be here welcoming university students. It is a great honour. I have no doubt that in the fullness of time, when I retire as the Senator for Nyamira ... view

• 18 Oct 2023 in Senate: leaders and left a mark. Do not be like a conveyor belt. Contribute as the youth to the betterment of this country. Take your role as leaders. The other day, the Senate passed a Bill, which I believe will be assented to by the President tomorrow, where we have made a provision that in the management of health facilities, there will be a place for youth. One youth will be among the eight members who will be in charge of management of our health facilities. Do not take a back seat. When you go back home, aspire to have a ... view
