• 6 Jun 2019 in Senate: Madam Temporary Speaker, I beg to report progress that the Committee of the whole has considered The Tea Bill (Senate Bills No. 36 of 2018), and seeks leave to sit again tomorrow, subject to re-committal of Clause 4. view
• 6 Jun 2019 in Senate: Thank you, Madam Temporary Speaker, for allowing me to make a contribution. I applaud my sister Sen. Shiyonga for coming out strongly on issues of health and for this Motion on Sickle Cell Disease. Madam Temporary Speaker, we know well that child mortality in this country is not at a good rate. We lose many children because of wrong diagnosis or lack of early detection. Madam Temporary Speaker, I heard our senior colleague, who is also an expert in terms of medical issues say that this is a disease that, if detected early can be prevented and controlled. Therefore, if ... view
• 6 Jun 2019 in Senate: Madam Temporary Speaker, I support that this is something that needs urgent attention because it will improve our mortality and our health. My only worry, which I will ask my sister Sen. Shiyonga to consider, is if we establish county, ward, and constituency units, it might not be visible as such because of the kind of resources that we have. We would have had all the resources to do all these things. However, knowing this country and what we do, we lack resources to do a lot of things. Therefore, we can probably reconsider and indicate that we have units ... view
• 6 Jun 2019 in Senate: My sister should consider an amendment so that we have units at referral hospitals to treat people with the peculiar disease. Thereafter, we can roll out the programme to all levels of health facilities in this country. view
• 6 Jun 2019 in Senate: I support this Motion because this is a good idea. This is a unique disease that needs special attention. Many times, because of wrong diagnosis, it is not possible for people to know that they have the disease because we do not have the facilities. This is a good Motion that needs to be taken to another level. I support. view
• 30 May 2019 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I thank you for allowing me to make a comment on this petition. I am a Member of the Committee on National Security, Defence and Foreign Relations that handled the petition by the residents of the Teri B Ranch. We did our best as a Committee in visiting the affected area, talking to the residents and noting the security concerns that affect he resident of Teri B Ranch. We would like to help the residents of Teri B Ranch. However, they must also help themselves. I am speaking from my experience of being a pastoralist who also ... view
• 30 May 2019 in Senate: We have recommended that these security committees must operate because we found out that there is laxity on the part of the security apparatus. We do not understand how people can force themselves into land that has not been leased to them. Why should they kill when they meet some resistance? We, as a Committee, have recommended that investigations must be done so that we know and bring to book the culprits that are causing the deaths of the innocent residents of Teri B Ranch. The electronic version of the Senate Hansard Report is for information purposesonly. A certified version ... view
• 30 May 2019 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, we need to talk to camel herders and inform them that if the land given to them to graze their animals is not enough, they should get out and find another leasing area. They cannot force themselves into a piece of land for which they do not have a lease. view
• 30 May 2019 in Senate: It is a complex issue. I also want to report that the Committee has given a 90 day period for which the security apparatus will report back to us when we revisit the ranch. We would like to hear from them how they have been able to enforce security and ensure there is peace between Teri B Ranch residents and the camel herders who are genuine lessees of the land on which they are grazing. view
