• 12 Sep 2019 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir--- view
• 12 Sep 2019 in Senate: My apologies for that, Madam Temporary Speaker. Madam Temporary Speaker, as a nation, we need to encourage research and scholarly contributions in partnership with users of sign language to ensure that it grows. We also need to encourage deaf champions in the growth of sign language, like Prof. Ndurumo, Ashura Michael, Sen. (Dr.) Musuruve, among others. view
• 12 Sep 2019 in Senate: Madam Temporary Speaker, I would like to urge the national and county governments to intervene in ensuring that hearing aids are given freely to the deaf who have residual hearing so that they could benefit in language acquisition. view
• 12 Sep 2019 in Senate: The Sign Language Bill that Sen. (Prof.) Kamar and I are sponsoring has been published and was read the First Time yesterday. Public participation will then follow. I am calling upon linguists, the deaf and other interested parties to have a look at it and give meaningful input that will enrich it. view
• 12 Sep 2019 in Senate: Lastly, I wish to state that education is an important bridge of achieving parity--- view
• 12 Sep 2019 in Senate: Madam Temporary Speaker, that was a gross error. I apologize to my Chairperson of the Committee on Labour and Social Welfare. Kenyans must know that the Chairperson of the Committee on Labour and Social Welfare is truly inclusive, and he supports issues of disability up to the very end. This particular Bill that I am talking about was initially sent to the Committee on Labour and Social Welfare and it was published through this Committee. Thereafter, it was taken to the Committee on Education. view
• 12 Sep 2019 in Senate: Thank you, Madam Temporary Speaker. The Chairperson of the Committee on Education knows sign language, and he can even sign his name in sign language. Lastly, education is an important bridge of achieving parity between the deaf and the wider society. I, therefore, urge the Ministry of Education, the KICD and relevant stakeholders to deliberately endeavour to afford quality education to this marginalised group. view
• 12 Sep 2019 in Senate: I wish all Kenyans a happy Deafness Awareness Month. Thank you. view
• 12 Sep 2019 in Senate: On a point of order, Madam Temporary Speaker. It is a deaf awareness month. Within the month, we also have the deaf awareness week that begins from 23rd to 29th. Thank you, Madam Temporary Speaker. view
• 12 Sep 2019 in Senate: Thank you, Madam Temporary Speaker, for this opportunity. I would like Sen. Ochillo-Ayacko to clarify, as I seem to be lost, that South Africans are officially killing blacks. Kindly give some clarification on that. view
