  • 26 Jun 2020 in Senate: I was personally attacked by some of the leaders from Kirinyaga County. In fact, there was that narrative that was being made by some attacking the great people of Murang’a. Let everyone know that those of us who come from Murang’a County are very proud of that heritage. I would not want this impeachment to be framed as if it is a fight between the people of Kirinyaga and Murang’a. We are all one and neighbours and therefore, we should not be seen as if we are fighting. view

We did not take to account our various other issues. Therefore, we urge you to support the new re-organized system. Since, we did not discriminate, notwithstanding other differing opinions we may have concerning other matters, we endeavoured to take ... view

Madam Deputy Speaker, let me start by congratulating my fellow Senators for the good work they have done for that period we have been in this Session. We have processed several Bills. So far, that is something we need to celebrate as a House. However, we have a lot of pending business. Allow me to set out some of the divisions that are in our conveyer belt. We have the Committee of the Whose ... view

  • 24 Jun 2020 in Senate: Another one is the Consideration of the National Assembly Amendments to the Early Childhood Education Bill (Senate Bill No.26 of 2018). This was also being prosecuted by the Committee on Education. We had also scheduled to handle the National Drought Management Authority (Amendment) Bill (No.26 of 2019) from the National Assembly. Madam Deputy Speaker, today we had a heavy duty of processing the new Committees and we achieved that. Therefore, the Committees will be sitting again freshly to elect Chairpersons and Vice-Chairpersons starting tomorrow. In the Committee Stage, we also have other key businesses. The most important one is the ... view
  • 24 Jun 2020 in Senate: This Motion, essentially, is affording Senators that break to go home, listen to their constituents and their grievances, and then crystalize all those ideas into Bills.
