• 7 Aug 2019 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. I wish to also add my voice to this very important Motion that was brought to the Floor of this House by Hon. Tum, who is away on official duty. As all the Members have put it, cancer has become a monster that is so scary and needs to be faced with all the mighty and resources. view

• 7 Aug 2019 in National Assembly: I remember when the HIV/AIDS became so serious, we used to be told that you are either affected or infected. The same can be said about cancer today. Early screening is very important. This can help curb most deaths that are caused by the cancer that is detected at the third and fourth stage. Early screening also makes treatment easy. Recently, I travelled to India on official duty, but I took time off to seek treatment and for check-up. I met very many Kenyans there. Most of them were there due to cancer.

• 7 Aug 2019 in National Assembly: As we have heard from most of the speakers, cancer is preventable, especially cervical cancer. I think that is why the Mover of the Motion decided to isolate it. There is a vaccine for cervical cancer and it is preventable.

When surgery is involved, the cost ranges between Kshs672,000 to Kshs1.25 million. The electronic version of the Official Hansard Report is ... view

• 7 Aug 2019 in National Assembly: Let me comment on a particular video clip that has been doing rounds. Back in 2010, I watched a video where Hon. Kioni was asking the then CEO of Kenya Bureau of Standards about maize that had been released into the market. The maize was believed to have aflatoxin. Mr. Mang’eli put it that in about 10 years the effects of the aflatoxin that was in the maize would be felt. I think that is what is happening to Kenyans now. We are feeling the effects of the maize that we consumed 10 years ago. Therefore, it is important for ... view
