• 4 Dec 2013 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I rise under Standing Order No.33(1) to seek leave to move a Motion of Adjournment for the purpose of discussing escalating insecurity in Marsabit County as a matter of urgent national importance. view
• 4 Dec 2013 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I stand to support this Report and also congratulate the Members of the Committee for taking their responsibility seriously and going round to see what is going on in that particular sector. Mr. Speaker, Sir, the Report is on geothermal mainly and that is a clean and cheap source of energy. That is the way we should go. But I would also like the Committee to take interest in other sources of energy like wind, which is also a cheap source of energy and might not require a lot of work like drilling of the steam wells. ... view
• 4 Dec 2013 in Senate: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, thank you for giving me this opportunity to bring to the national attention the situation in Marsabit County. I stand here for all the residents of Marsabit County, as their Senator, with a very heavy heart. This is because while other parts of this country are getting prepared to embrace devolution and make use of this opportunity to improve their condition, my county is sliding back into a situation where people are finding it easier to live in a foreign country than in their own country. Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, the current situation is very bad. ... view
• 4 Dec 2013 in Senate: Thank you, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir.

Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, last weekend we, as leaders, complained and the police asked the trucks to follow them. Three trucks followed them. When they reached Sololo area, ... view

• 28 Nov 2013 in Senate: Thank you, Mr. Temporary Chairman, Sir. I stand to support the two clauses; Clauses 3 and 4, which are additional clauses, because for a long time, we have not actually been capturing what our people want in terms of development. The closer we get to them, the better, and this is one way of doing it. Mine is also just to stress that for the smooth working of these Boards, at least, the ward and the sub-county could meet only once in a year and present their proposals so that we can do the actual supervision at the county level, ... view
• 26 Nov 2013 in Senate: Thank you for giving me this opportunity to contribute to this important Bill. I would like to join my colleagues in thanking Sen. Sang for having thought about this very important Bill which will go a very long way in streamlining the way the counties will take off. Currently or as it has been Kenya, we have had politics of the winner taking it all. After one has been elected, they only concentrate on the area they come from and that is what has been in the governors’ minds all this time. This also comes with rewarding supporters.
