• 2 Jun 2020 in Senate: When we talk about ICT, we must have modules and content that is relevant, so that whether people are there or not, learning goes on. It is working well at the university level. view
• 2 Jun 2020 in Senate: As we talk about ICT, we do not have content at lower learning and secondary school levels. There is no way you can implement ICT without content. Universities are able to come up with content and ensure that learning is going on, and learners are self- taught at that level. Learners do not even complain. In fact, they are always asking for modules. The same case should then apply to lower, upper and secondary schools. You cannot talk of embracing ICT when you do not have content. view
• 2 Jun 2020 in Senate: Kenyans must be serious when it comes to issues of education. We cannot joke around with education. It is education that brought us to this House. Education is instrumental in ensuring that we come up with all rounded persons. Why should we joke with the future of this nation? There is need for the Senate Committee on ICT to work together with the Senate Committee on Education to ensure that we are now serious on issues of ICT. view
• 2 Jun 2020 in Senate: Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, although we are talking of buying laptops, they are not knowledge, let Kenyans know that. Let us give knowledge and knowledge is power only when it is relevant and shared. Let us be very fair to our students and other learners of this country, by giving them what they deserve. We were given what we deserved, and that is why we are here. Therefore, we cannot take our learners ten years back. view
• 2 Jun 2020 in Senate: Learners with disabilities are right now ten years behind. When one goes to the classroom, no learning is going on. Learning through ICT is going on in other places, while learners with disabilities are disadvantaged because content is not there. 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
• 2 Jun 2020 in Senate: There is need for the Ministry of Education to come here and talk to us. We need to work as partners; we are not enemies. The Cabinet Secretary (CS), Prof. Magoha, should know that we want to work as partners for the sake of the children of this country. We are not going to play the proverbial ostrich in this country. view
• 2 Jun 2020 in Senate: Thank you, Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, for giving me this opportunity. Allow me to congratulate Sen. Dullo for coming up with these two important Statements. I will quickly comment on them starting with the one on marijuana. view
• 2 Jun 2020 in Senate: The issue of marijuana is not new. It is something that has always been there and it has a lot of negative impact on our youth. The Senator has said clearly that it is being smuggled from Ethiopia, but that could not be the case. It could be an arrangement where people and even police officers are aware of the lorries carrying marijuana. view
• 2 Jun 2020 in Senate: There is need to do a follow up to find out how many people have been apprehended so far regarding such illicit deals. If none has been apprehended at all, then it means that the police officers are colluding with those who bring in marijuana. They are not smuggling it because it is an arranged activity. view
• 2 Jun 2020 in Senate: It is unfortunate that our youth can lose direction because of marijuana. Marijuana has a lot of negative impact on health. We have been talking about issues of mental health where the youth forgot what they are supposed to do because of engaging in illicit drugs. As a result, sometimes they even become insane. You can imagine dealing with an insane person. Insane people can cause a lot of havoc. However, when they are taken to court, sometimes they are pardoned. There is need for us to see how to arrest the issue of marijuana entering our country. It is ... view
