• 20 Apr 2016 in Senate: Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, because my microphone is still on, I want to say that managers must be registered by this organisation so that we know them and we can follow them up to ensure that they do not mislead our athletes. view
• 19 Apr 2016 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, unless this appointee had been involved in mismanagement of the institution, she deserves to the appointment by the mere fact that she comes from a minority community. It is sad that the petitioner thinks that the minority community should be suppressed further. It is a good move to consider people from minority communities. There are minority communities in this country, including mine; the Sabaots, who since Independence have never been appointed as Ministers, ambassadors, chairpersons of organizations, leave alone managing directors of any parastatal yet they are qualified.

• 19 Apr 2016 in Senate: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I will be brief. The disparity of the amounts that have been deposited in this account by the various counties raises a lot of suspicion. We need clarification on whether there was an agreed uniform amount. Secondly, is it possible that each governor is deciding on his own how much to deposit in this account? For that matter, it would be important that we are told how much was spent from each county, for example, whether I would want Trans-Nzoia County to The electronic version of the Senate Hansard Report is for information purposes only.

• 24 Mar 2016 in Senate: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I wish to issue a Statement that was sought by the Senator for West Pokot in respect to food situation in West Pokot. The Senator wanted to know whether the Government is aware that there is food shortage and looming hunger and starvation in West Pokot County. He also wanted to know whether the Government is aware that school going children are already adversely affected and many are unable to regularly attend classes. He also wanted to know when the Government will supply relief food to the affected people. Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, according to the ... view
• 24 Mar 2016 in Senate: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, the details that I have given were availed by the Ministry and it shows that there is food shortage in some areas but some areas received near normal rainfall and were not affected. An estimated 20,000 people are facing food shortage. The Ministry has also said that there is adequate food in stock. The first line of defence in terms of addressing food shortage is the county government. This applies to all counties including West Pokot and Turkana. Turkana County is the second largest recipient of resources from devolved funds. Therefore, it should give priority to ... view
• 24 Mar 2016 in Senate: I am the Chairman of the Committee but this is a report that I have received and if indeed there is need for further investigation to find out more, I am ready to go back.

The Senator has said that there are children who have dropped out of school due to the shortage of food. We need to go back and find out more so that those children can go ... view
