• 24 Oct 2018 in Senate: Thank you, Madam Temporary Speaker. I like your concern because I am trying to put across an issue of great concern in this nation. Some parking lots are designated for PWDs. However, most PWDs who drive lack parking space, yet there is signage showing that certain parking lots are reserved for them. I agree with the provisions of this Bill that if someone parks in an area that is not designated for them, they should pay a fine. As I said, there is a shortfall when it comes to parking areas for the Persons with Disabilities (PWDs). There is need ... view
• 24 Oct 2018 in Senate: The Bill clearly states that even tankers should have their parking areas. If a driver of a tanker parks in an area not designated for them, there is a possibility that something can happen. For example, the tanker could catch fire and cause an accident. There is need for motorists who do not adhere to their parking areas to be fined because that is the only way to make them conscious about issues of parking. view
• 24 Oct 2018 in Senate: The Bill also addresses the issue of pavements. Pavement should be for pedestrians. There is some madness that happens on our roads where you find motorists driving on pavements. I am saying this because if a motorist drives on a pavement, they can easily knock down someone and cause an accident. Actually it is immoral for motorists to drive on pavements. view
• 24 Oct 2018 in Senate: There are also instances where people do businesses on pavements. You will find people erecting kiosks and selling on the pavements. That is wrong because pavements should be pavements. I am happy that this Bill will address the issue. It is stated that if motorists drive on pavements, they should be fined. It is good for them to be fined because if that happens, they will feel the pinch and not repeat. There is need for motorists to be sober on our roads. I fully support the issue of fines. I also fully support the fact that there is need ... view
• 24 Oct 2018 in Senate: good to be an entrepreneur which also entails wisdom to ensure that the building is accessible. This Bill also states clearly that in a situation where someone has erected a building, then there is need to provide for parking space for that particular building, so that whoever wants to go to that building can easily park their vehicle and access the building. As I support, again, I commend the Senator for coming up with this Bill, which is not only important to the national Government but also to the county governments. This is a law that will bring both the ... view
• 23 Oct 2018 in Senate: Thank you, Madam Temporary Speaker, for giving me this opportunity to also add my voice to this Statement. First, I thank Sen. (Dr.) Zani for coming up with this Statement because it is lauded for the women of this country. It is a wonderful thing that we have a Kenyan at the top of an international body. I congratulate Sen. Kihika for the appointment. We are proud of her because she has done us proud as a country. Internationally, being in such a position, it is not something that we take for granted as a country. She has proved to ... view
• 18 Oct 2018 in Senate: Thank you, Madam Temporary Speaker, for the opportunity to contribute to this very important Motion. When we are talking about councillors, we are directly talking about the counties because they worked there. By the time someone is a councillor, that person is directly dealing with the constituency. Madam Temporary Speaker, talking of the time when councillors were in service, you would find that the experience they had was not very interesting. Very early in the morning at 6.00 a.m., you would find constituents at your door. The same situation was evident in the evening at around 10.00 p.m., when you ... view

• 18 Oct 2018 in Senate: There is need to ensure that these leaders who did a noble job do not languish in poverty. As we speak, there are some councillors who are almost begging on the streets. They are not even able to cater for their medical expenses, to take their children to colleges, yet they served this nation. There is need to ensure that when leaders are in service and they work tirelessly, we acknowledge them by giving them honorarium. It is a good thing for them to get honorarium. It should be a reasonable amount that will help them, even if it is ... view
