• 27 Jul 2021 in Senate: Madam Temporary Speaker, we will input the money Bill aspects including the fund and anything that deals with tax in the National Assembly.

I must thank all these young people who came. It was an informal public participation that has never been done before in Parliament. People were organizing their own meetings and talking about the Bill in Voi, Turkana and ... view

• 22 Jul 2021 in Senate: I asked them what they would like. Normally, you would expect them to say that they want some soccer balls. If they are ambitious, they would say they want a school bus, but they said they want food. As a parent, I felt heartbroken that due to the COVID- 19 pandemic and the fact that many of the students in Nairobi come from informal settlements with a lot of poverty, we have them in school without food.
