• 14 Jun 2023 in Senate: ensure that they connect everybody to the sewer line so that we deal with this issue of pollution? They have made that request. They told us that some of the pipes supplying water and maybe that is what you take, were laid down in the city in 1932 by a mzungu . Up to today, those are the same pipes that are supplying water to the residents of Nairobi. All they need is just Kshs10 billion so that they can regenerate those pipes and what you get in your respective houses is not polluted. They told us that some of ... view
• 14 Jun 2023 in Senate: It may not serve everybody but a good number of Nairobians will have sewer connection. view
• 14 Jun 2023 in Senate: Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, imagine if you live in these estates that I have mentioned, like Umoja and you get water once a week. You live in a flat where you get water supply once a week on a Sunday and maybe at night. Where do you even store the water because you live in an apartment? You do not even have open space where you can put a tank.

• 14 Jun 2023 in Senate: Finally, we created a body that is supposed to take care of our environment, but it is doing very little. There are many people who are doing illegal businesses such as washing cars next to rivers and discharging oil to the river. This is happening yet the view

• 14 Jun 2023 in Senate: National Environment Management Authority (NEMA) and the Nairobi City County Government are doing nothing. We are polluting these rivers knowing that there is somebody downstream who is depending on that water for household use. We are being very insensitive. I hope that at the opportune time, we will also put this bodies to task. NEMA should tell us what they are lacking. They get financial allocation every budget cycle. What are they doing? The Nairobi City County Government gives approval of buildings. However, if you walk along Kirichwa Kubwa River, people have built almost to the bank of the River. ... view
