• 21 Feb 2019 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I want to thank you for this opportunity to support you in welcoming the MCAs from Elgeyo Marakwet. I want to say that they are welcome to the House.

They need to ensure that they are representing their constituents very well. We are ... view

I want to begin by commending the ad hoc Committee that was tasked with this work. They have done a commendable job and it has to go on record. This is a very important Motion on the issue of maize, which is a staple food in Kenya. Being a staple food, you will find that in most households, people eat ugali. Madam Temporary Speaker, this Motion is even speaking to Sustainable Development Goal (SDG) 1 and 2, which seek to ... view
• 21 Feb 2019 in Senate: Thank you very much, Madam Temporary Speaker, for the clarification. As I speak on the amendments, I also support the Motion.
