• 18 May 2022 in Senate: three or four vehicles, does it mean that they will charged for every vehicle. That road is meant to help Kenyans, but it is now a business. It does not make sense to use taxpayers’ money to do a road that Kenyans will pay while using it. This is something that we Kenyans should not keep quiet about. We demanded for answers as to why we are being charged highly to use the Nairobi Express Way. Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, it is the onus of the contractors to do any repairs that are there. It is not for the Government ... view

• 18 May 2022 in Senate: and societies around the world. The theme for this year’s World Hypertension Day is “Measure your blood pressure accurately, control it, live longer”. In many parts of the world, millions and millions of people around the globe have died as a result of blood pressure and its related consequences. High blood pressure is often called the silent killer. This is because most of the time, it has no obvious symptoms to indicate something is wrong. Mr. Temporary Speaker, high blood pressure is classified into four categories; the normal, pre-hypertension that is mild, stage one, moderate and stage two severe. Hisatomi ... view
• 18 May 2022 in Senate: Thank you, Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, for this opportunity. As Sen. Ndwiga was taking us through, I could really see the role of the Senate. If you look at the Coffee Bill (Senate Bill No. 20 of 2022), it comes out clearly that we are keen on representing, the counties and their interests. One of our core interest is to ensure that we are protect our farmers. The country signed the Maputo Declaration and it stated clearly that we will support agriculture and about 10 per cent of the national revenue will go to agriculture. One of our core serious ... view

It collapsed at one point simply because the farmers were not getting direct benefit. Therefore, some farmers decided not to continue with the industries. We need to ensure that we are helping farmers and encouraging them to continue with this ... view
• 12 May 2022 in Senate: Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, I would like to welcome the girls and congratulate their teachers for allowing them to visit the Senate. This is a great opportunity for girls to be mentored and know what happens in Parliament. I would like to encourage girls to work hard in school because they have the time. This is the opportunity you have to decide your destiny. It is through education that you determine how your future will be like. Some of them will be doctors, legislators and nurses. Some of them will take Kenya to greater heights. That can only be realized ... view
• 11 May 2022 in Senate: Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir, for giving me the opportunity. I rise pursuant to Standing Order No.37(1) to make a Statement on a matter of general topical concern namely Mother’s Day. Celebrations of mothers can be traced back to the ancient Greeks and Romans who held festivals in honour of the mother goddess Rhea and Cybele. However, the origins of Mother’s day as we now know, it dates back to the 19th Century. It can be traced back to 1907 when Anna Jarvis wanted to mark the death of her mother Anne Reeves Jarvis, an artiste who cared for injured ... view
