Thank you, Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, for the opportunity to add my voice to this Motion. I am Hon. Sen. (Dr.) Getrude Musuruve Inimah. The Iceland Summit was not a waste of resources. It was good that Kenya was represented in the Summit whose goal was to look at issues of women. It was also a platform for one to see the best political practices in the world concerning women. When you attend such summits, you can borrow one or two things that you can use to help women in your country. I commend the act of awarding the female ...

Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, I thank you for giving me the opportunity to contribute to this Motion. It is important, especially, for this nation. I support this Motion with a number of reasons. The Office of the Ombudsman, in my view, works as the watchdog for justice and fairness. Sometimes you would want to know how justice was delivered. There are times when justice is perverted. This office being a watchdog, I am looking at its core values. The core values look at issues of fairness. A case in point on the issue of fairness is a situation where someone ...

Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir, for giving me the opportunity to add my voice to this Petition. I commend the residents of West Pokot County for this Petition.

Olekina, who observed that the Governor of Kakamega ...

I commend the President for the Address that he gave, which was an all-round speech. He touched on political, social and economic issues. I also thank him because his Address was all inclusive. He addressed all kinds of people: men, women, the marginalised and people with disabilities, albeit narrowly. I remember the President’s Address as if I heard it two hours ago. It is still memorable. One thing that came out so strongly in his Address is the issue of forgiveness. That was a very humbling statement that should never go unnoticed. It is biblical that when kings or leaders ...

Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I want the Chairperson to clearly state whether it was suicide or was Mary Natembea killed by her husband and what the Government is doing about it. Part two of the question is not comprehensively answered and part three of the question---
