• 30 Sep 2020 in Senate: Thank you, Madam Temporary Speaker, for giving me this opportunity to give my contributions to the Sectional Properties Bill (National Assembly Bills No.23 of 2019). I want to thank Sen. Kang’ata for bringing this Bill to the Floor of this House. When this Bill becomes law, it will be very good for this country. The President has always been talking about housing issues and acting to ensure that it becomes a reality. This blends well with the nation’s agenda of having affordable houses for everyone. It is very expensive for the common mwananchi to afford housing in Nairobi and other ... view
• 30 Sep 2020 in Senate: This Bill speaks on current issues, with regard to responding to global market needs and that of Kenyans. When you go to other countries, for example, in New York, you will find that people are living in apartments. This Bill will simplify the registration of units, so that one becomes the owner of a building. When one becomes the owner of a building, he or she will be liable to the unit under him or her. According to this Bill, conferring rights to unit owners guarantees the right to property. One knows that you are guaranteed ownership of the unit ... view
• 30 Sep 2020 in Senate: Madam Temporary Speaker, thank you for giving me this opportunity to support this important Bill by Sen. (Dr.) Zani. Kenya as a country is among the state parties that signed the Abuja Declaration. It was very clear that all the state parties that signed and ratified the convention agreed to set aside 15 per cent of their national annual revenue to health. This Bill is timely and will assist us to actualise the Abuja Declaration. With regard to other international declarations, in 1978, Kenya signed the Alma- Ata Declaration, which gave the mandate of healthcare to the common man. Health ... view
• 29 Sep 2020 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, a concern that would raise eyebrows is the issue where payment has been made for equipment that is already in Netherlands, but it has not arrived yet in Kenya; meaning that the Netherlands Government will be paid on monthly basis and yet the equipment is not being used. This is not economical in any sense; that you are paying for equipment that is still in the Netherlands. In fact, the payments ought to have been done when the equipment had landed, but because of the many dynamics, the project became highly expensive and did not meet the ... view
• 24 Sep 2020 in Senate: Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir, for giving me this opportunity to commend the Chairperson of the Standing Committee on Education for coming up with the Report. I also want to raise the same concerns that Sen. Wetangula has mentioned; they are valid and serious concerns. I am a product of a system that Sen. Wetangula has mentioned. By the time a student was going to the university after A-Level, he or she was mature enough to cope up with university education and transit to the world of work. As the Standing Committee on Education, we need to interrogate this because ... view
• 24 Sep 2020 in Senate: Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir, for allowing me to support this Statement by Sen. (Dr.) Mbito. This is a great concern that he has brought on the Floor of this House. view
• 24 Sep 2020 in Senate: We are talking about better payment for health workers. However, we have administrative personnel as well. Those are the ones who usher patients in, collect funds and advice patients where to go and all that. We should never forget that administrative personnel in the health facilities also need to be considered. view
• 24 Sep 2020 in Senate: As we urge governors to consider remunerating health workers better, let us encourage them to also think about the administrative personnel because they go to work from morning to evening everyday and they are committed. The administrative personnel start the procedures for patients to receive treatment. It helps in ensuring that health, which is one of the Big Four Agenda, is executed in the country. Health is even enshrined in Article 43 of our Constitution, which we must defend. view
• 24 Sep 2020 in Senate: The Committee that will deal with this matter should ensure that administrative workers, who most of the times are not talked about yet they contribute a lot in the health sector are incorporated. view
• 24 Sep 2020 in Senate: I thank you and support. view
