• 27 Jul 2021 in Senate: I know that many persons with disabilities do not know how to start. When county governments are giving people stalls to start businesses, they should allocate some stalls for persons with disabilities. It should be a good percentage so that people living with disabilities will know that county governments are concerned about them. They should also be given some money to start up their businesses. County governments should be mandated to identify persons with disabilities and their talents. Once they do so, they also ensure that they give them a premise where they can do their businesses. It is painful ... view

• 22 Jul 2021 in Senate: ensuring that every child goes to school and accesses food, irrespective of their family background. I will be very candid on the Floor of this House. There are millions of children who are not able to get even a meal in the morning. Some of them drink porridge in the morning, lunchtime and evening. Some do not take anything, not even water. This Bill is going to ensure that the Government is brought into account and ensure that it puts a lot of money into education. This Bill comes at a time when our President, Uhuru Muigai Kenyatta, is rallying ... view

• 21 Jul 2021 in Senate: warn that many children will never return, particularly as countries experience an economic contraction in the wake of the pandemic. Missing out on education does long term damage to individuals and communities, with girls particularly at risk. The benefits of schooling are transformative and multi- generational - a child whose mother can read is 50 per cent more likely to live past the age of five and twice as likely to attend school themselves. Even before the pandemic, 9 in 10 school children in low income countries were unable to read proficiently by the age of 10. Since its creation ... view
• 21 Jul 2021 in Senate: the impact of Covid-19 on adolescents in Kisumu, Nairobi, Kilifi and Wajir counties, revealed that there were approximately 100,000 early marriages (aged 15-19) among the girls in this study, 32 per cent got married after COVID-19 started, 44 per cent got married because of pregnancy while 16 per cent claimed they would not be married if there was no pandemic. It is worrying, that the out of school trend has tripled. It is clear that 2015 MDG’s were not sustainable in terms of outcome. State parties met and made a global promise of view
