• 14 Mar 2019 in Senate: There are some tea farmers who have been discouraged from farming. It is simply because they put in a lot of investment to ensure that they pay labourers to tender the crop and harvest it. When tea leaves are delivered to the factory, brokers emerge from nowhere and make sure that the amount of tea leaves that goes to the factory is underrated. I know of tea farmers who have decided not to continue with tea farming, and this is a very serious issue. As the Senate, we have to ensure that we encourage farmers because they play a big ... view
• 14 Mar 2019 in Senate: I want to believe that the Tea Regularity Authority of Kenya (TRAK) will add a lot of value in terms of managing tea production and also payment of tea farmers so that farmers are not discouraged. Even the fact that the farmers will register with a processor, I feel that is a plus because it means the farmers will not be dealing with brokers but processors themselves. When they do so, I imagine that there will be a contract that speaks to the farmer and deals with the processor. When there is a contract, the farmer knows that when he ... view

• 14 Mar 2019 in Senate: everyone. When we go to any committees, they serve us with the African tea. You find people leaving coffee and caffeine for tea. People should not say that tea is for Maragolis alone.

• 14 Mar 2019 in Senate: Madam Temporary Speaker, thank you for giving me the opportunity to continue with this Motion. Just to ensure that strings run evenly, this Motion is about creating of disability inclusive clubs in all public schools.

We have lessons that run from 8.00 a.m. to 3.20 p.m. and then after that, there are co-curricular activities like clubs. It is ... view
