• 21 Jul 2021 in Senate: supported. We have to look for a way of ensuring that farmers are protected from brokers. view
• 21 Jul 2021 in Senate: In fact, what is in the farming industry is just the brokerage that someone decides, I am a farmer and at the same time I am a miller and accountant. It cannot work. There are pains that farmers go through and we have to see how to alleviate these pain. Famers play a big role in the economy of this country. They should be the first people to be supported. view
• 21 Jul 2021 in Senate: Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, I support this Bill that the Chairperson of the Committee on Agriculture and Fisheries has come up with. I believe that we are going to deliberate on this issue and ensure that it sees the light of the day and ensure that it becomes law. When it becomes law, then the farmers are going to commend this Senate. They will see that we stood in at the right time to ensure that they are not exploited. This issue of the common man being exploited must come to a stop. The common man is exploited in very ... view
• 21 Jul 2021 in Senate: I want to give an example where the common man is exploited. Even the taxi drivers, you see them working so many hours. The youths of this country work very many hours but at the end of the day they do not get the real proceeds from their work because there is a mechanism in place that does not allow them to get directly. We must ensure that people gain from their sweat. Direct investment must have direct benefits. It is painful to have direct investments. You have taken loans from the bank to do direct investment but when it ... view
• 21 Jul 2021 in Senate: Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, I can feel the pain of the farmers in Kiambu County, sugarcane farmers in Mumias and Western. They must be protected. There is need to ensure that laws are in place so that when it comes to issues of sugar and coffee farming, they should not be politicized. Policies have to come in place to ensure that our farmers are protected. They have a right to earn from their sweat. They have a right to educate their children, go to hospital and afford NHIF because they must eat from their sweat. view
• 21 Jul 2021 in Senate: Thank you and I support this Bill. view
• 14 Jul 2021 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I thank you for giving me an opportunity to comment and congratulate Sen. Falhada for this statement. When it comes to social media, it has its pros and cons. Many times there is a lot of grapevine information from social media. It gives you lots of information; some of it is true while some of it is false. So, there is need for a way censoring all information that appear on social media because sometimes it has influence on the youth. It is very addictive. The youth spend a lot of their active time and energy just ... view
• 14 Jul 2021 in Senate: Thank you, Madam Temporary Speaker for giving me this opportunity to support the Statement by Sen. Cheruiyot concerning the closure of courts. Courts must always be open. I say this because in a society, you will always find that people have issues. If people are not managed well, they may even take the law into their hands. In a situation where there is crime in a village and the matter is not reported to the authority that enforce law, people can take the law into their hands. It has been evident that sometimes a thief is found a burnt to ... view
• 14 Jul 2021 in Senate: As I speak on the issue of reopening the law courts, we have to find out, are there other law courts in other parts of the country that are also closed? There is need for law courts to be opened in all the 47 counties. There are also cases of land issues that have taken too long. You will find that neighbours have been having land issues, and you know how emotive land issues can be. Sometimes you will find neighbours killing each other because the cases have dragged and the land issue has not been resolved. However, if these ... view
• 14 Jul 2021 in Senate: Thank you, Madam Temporary Speaker, for this opportunity to comment on and support this Bill. It must be very clear that this Bill touches on Sustainable Development Goal (SDG) No.4. All nations of the world promised education for all by 2030. Education for all means both boys and girls, even those with disabilities getting an equal education. There are 10 targets on SDG No.4. One of them is No.4(3) which speaks on vocational training and access to higher education. This Bill is timely because it is going to ensure that we adhere to the international clarion call of ensuring that ... view
