  • 7 Mar 2024 in Senate: Women in Kenya, like their counterparts globally, have battled and continue to face systemic barriers that inhibit their full participation in all spheres of life. Climate change poses a unique and disproportionate threat to women, particularly those in rural areas who depend on natural resources for their livelihoods. The adverse effects of climate change, including erratic weather patterns, drought and floods have exacerbated food insecurity, water scarcity and economic instability, placing an undue burden on the shoulders of our mothers, daughters and sisters. Mr. Speaker, Sir, the challenges of peace and security remain paramount as women often bear the brunt ... view

  • 29 Feb 2024 in Senate: Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir. I want to support the Report of the Committee on County Public Investments and Special Funds (CPIC) where I sit. It is very sad how the issue of pensions is handled. Many people have died without receiving their dues. It is unfortunate that Nairobi City County and Mombasa County have the highest pension debt according to the data submitted. The interest charged by the Local Authorities Provident Fund (LAPFUND) and Local Authorities Pension Trust (LAPTRUST) has led to the growth of these penalties. So, it is unfortunate that counties have failed to settle due to ... view
