• 14 Jul 2020 in Senate: However, it was a hanging Statement. He was not given time to complete the Statement. Nonetheless, what I know is that the Chair of the Committee on Lands, Environment and Natural Resources should be able to fix the Cabinet Secretary (CS) so that the CS does not intimidate Kenyans. view
• 14 Jul 2020 in Senate: Thank you, Madam Temporary Speaker, for giving me this opportunity. I support Sen. Dullo’s Motion that the Ad Hoc Committee be given more time to come up with a report. That report must be valid, verifiable and its contents be authentic. We have the issue of social distancing because of COVID-19 and physical visitations are restricted. It is fair that the Committee’s time be extended, so that when the report is brought, we are able to defend Article 43(a) of the Constitution. We, as a country, should support the Government’s agenda on health. For us to do so, there is ... view
• 14 Jul 2020 in Senate: Madam Temporary Speaker, thank you very much for giving me this opportunity to support this Motion. I start by commending Sen. Sakaja and his team. Indeed, I have worked under Sen. Sakaja when I was in the Committee of Labor and Social Services. He was my Chairperson and I know that he is equal to the task. 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
• 14 Jul 2020 in Senate: I also commend the secretariat or support staff that have been working with them. They are doing a good job. At this particular time as Kenyans, we need to know how we can ensure that the economy is flowing. Madam Temporary Speaker, when it comes to the economy, it has been wrecked by the Coronavirus disease (COVID-19) pandemic. There are so many people who are not employed. Sometimes even couples in a family are not employed. They have children who have to eat. They have rent, water and other bills to pay. I agree and support the Committee’s recommendation that ... view
• 7 Jul 2020 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, thank you very much for giving me this opportunity to support this Petition by Sen. (Dr.) Mwaura. Our policy is very clear that 30 per cent of procurement opportunities should go to youths, women and PWDs. However, this is just theoretically on paper. Practically, it is not working on the ground because PWDs are leading miserable life. They have no one to hold their hands. They want to be involved with the procurement process, but it is a tall order for them. Sometimes back, I visited counties to find out what exactly the problem with procurement processes ... view
• 7 Jul 2020 in Senate: I call upon governors, wherever they are, to kindly remember PWDs because they are your constituents. Please give them an opportunity to do some work for the counties because they have talents. We have to nurture these talents. We cannot continue seeing them dying in poverty when they have talents. Mr. Speaker, Sir, this is a Petition that should go to the right Committee. We have to review how we treat our vulnerable groups in this country. Are we being fair to them? Is there parity when it comes to economic development with regard to PWDs? It is wrong the ... view

• 7 Jul 2020 in Senate: Okay. Thank you. view
• 7 Jul 2020 in Senate: Thank you very much, Madam Deputy Speaker, for this opportunity. I want to congratulate Hon. Rachel Ameso Amolo for the appointment. Indeed, as women of Kenya, this is a plus for us. She brings double blessings to the PSC. As a former legislator, she will bring a lot of eye-opening ideas to the Commission. There are legislative issues that we have had as legislators, but sometimes we lack Commissioners who would run our agenda. Madam Deputy Speaker, I want to believe that her appointment is well meaning. Just like any other woman, I support her appointment. Her experience will also ... view
