• 30 Jul 2019 in Senate: Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir, for giving me this opportunity to support this Statement from the Senator for Kakamega County. I want to say that Sen. Malalah has come up with a very commendable Statement that needs to be thoroughly investigated because the Constitution is really keen on issues of affirmative action. You will notice that communities that seem to be large are now seemingly marginalized in terms of positions, for example, in the Public Service. The Committee should carry out an audit and find out the situation in terms of ethnic balancing, jobs and positions so that every community ... view

• 30 Jul 2019 in Senate: We talk strongly about cancer when leaders are affected. I think we need to speak to this issue every time so that we ensure common mwananchi is aware of it.

There is need for the common mwananchi to access, afford and be treated of cancer. There is also need for county governments to take up this responsibility. This Bill proposes establishment of cancer centres in all 47 counties. ... view
• 30 Jul 2019 in Senate: this House. Declaring cancer as a national disaster is not enough. What will happen after declaring it as a national disaster? If the Twelfth Parliament walks the talk, Kenyans will commend it for curbing this disease. HIV/AIDS scourge once claimed many lives. In 2011, President Obasanjo called upon world leaders to address it. The world leaders converged and agreed it was actually killing a number of people. The countries agreed to invest a lot of money in research and that helped reduce the disease. It is possible for cancer to come to a stop--- view

• 30 Jul 2019 in Senate: Thank you, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. I am sure that we can stop the spread of cancer if we come together. We all agree cancer is killing people and invest in research. The debates going on about cancer are misleading. One will advise you not to eat a certain food just for you to be told that deficiency of that food will make you suffer from marasmus. We have diverse causes and treatment of cancer. Therefore, we must have diverse approaches towards it. We have to take this with a lot of seriousness and I am sure that the nation ... view
