• 18 Feb 2020 in Senate: Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir, for giving me this opportunity to support this Statement. Indeed, Sen. Kwamboka has come up with a Statement that is really important and which needs to be interrogated by everyone. Mr. Speaker, Sir, when prisoners are in remand at Industrial Area, they are there because they are still innocent and are yet to be proved guilty. As they wait to be told whether they are guilty or not, they really need to get all the services, just like any other citizens. In a situation where there is power failure and there is no back up, ... view
• 13 Feb 2020 in Senate: Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir, for giving me this opportunity. First of all, I want to thank you for the busy schedule you have had and the delegations you have been sending to represent us. I also want to thank you for what the Senate did, to come up with a recording of condolences for the late President Moi. It was something good because we will always be on record and anyone can always flashback to see that we stood with our fellow Senator. I also want to thank you for the Communication you have made right now concerning the ... view
• 13 Feb 2020 in Senate: who have not come into close contact with their Senators, so it is a good thing. Lastly, kindly allow me a second to say that on the Bills that you have talked about, it is something commendable for the Senate to have come up with the Bills but they should not just be on the shelves. The Bills should have actionable impact on our society so that we are able to achieve as the Senate. Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir. view
• 13 Feb 2020 in Senate: Thank you, Madam Temporary Speaker, for giving me this opportunity to support this Motion. 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
• 13 Feb 2020 in Senate: The Members that have been nominated to the Committee are up to the task. I like the composition because it has the face of Kenya. If you look at it keenly, you will realise that the Members come from different parts of this country. I also like the composition in the sense that it is gender sensitive. The fact that we have Sen. Dullo and Sen. Kwamboka is a plus to the women in leadership. Sen. Farhiya talked about increasing the number of women in such committees. In as much as we are talking about increasing the number of women ... view
• 13 Feb 2020 in Senate: I think it is this microphone, Madam Temporary Speaker. view
• 13 Feb 2020 in Senate: Madam Temporary Speaker, you know I am a linguist. When I talk of “Speaker”, it comes from my mouth as “Speaker”. I think there is need to check the microphone. view
• 13 Feb 2020 in Senate: Madam Temporary Speaker, I also like the composition of these Members because the blending is okay. In this House, we have Members who are experienced and those who are young in politics and leadership. So, they will learn from the experienced ones. That is important. view
• 13 Feb 2020 in Senate: Let me also talk about an issue that Sen. Orengo mentioned. We all know about the BBI and the conversation on whether to have a parliamentary system or not. There is also need for the Senate to come out strongly with regard to what kind of system we want. It should not just be that these are the propositions to be validated. The Senate needs to add its voice so that it has its glory as the “upper House”. If we are to support devolution, there is no way we can keep quiet as the Senate. We must add our ... view
• 10 Feb 2020 in Senate: Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir. That is a point I was coming to talk about, that is the national funds for the disabled. The late President Moi came up with a task force that actually recommended the setting up of the National Fund for the Disabled of Kenya. He even contributed a lot of money to this Fund. It is this fund that actually recommended the Persons with Disabilities Act, 2003 to come into place. Apart from that, I cannot fail to say that even in the area of special education, it is the MacKay Commission that came up with ... view
