  • 2 Mar 2022 in Senate: Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, I stand to support the Statement by Sen. Kasanga on public participation on the review of substance abusive by stakeholders. Public participation is very important. It is a mandatory requirement that is even enshrined in our Constitution. We see people abusing substances live in our media stations. Sometimes adverts are played when children are watching. They see people drinking and smoking. There are also other foreign movies that seem to support substance abuse. There is need for all stakeholders to be brought on board. Even parents and teachers are great stakeholders when it comes to public ... view

  • 2 Mar 2022 in Senate: Thank you, Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, for giving me the chance to second this Motion by Sen. Nyamunga. Before I continue, allow me to thank Sen. Nyamunga for raising awareness and bringing this issue on the Floor of this House. It must be very clear that the neglect of the elderly is something that has happened since time immemorial, even during the olden days. We even see, for those of us who read the Bible in Psalms 71, an old person is clearly communicating with God. He is telling God that- “I have relied on you from the days of ... view

  • 2 Mar 2022 in Senate: initiative on this programme was well meaning. This programme is among the many cash transfer programmes that the Government has initiated. The Government has also initiated cash transfers for the orphans, persons with disabilities who are severely vulnerable and continued to intensify and encourage this one that has been brought by Sen. Nyamunga on the elderly. Madam Temporary Speaker, it must be very clear to our mind that the the elderly face a lot of challenges despite the fact that they have educated their children. Some of these children may be working locally or abroad and they have also started ... view
