• 17 Apr 2024 in Senate: Thank you, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. I fully support Sen. Mumma on this issue. Today, having the Cabinet Secretary here, it was sad when I asked about the number of deaths, of which she never gave the data. It seems arrogant that the Government does not give a damn how many deaths we have had ever since the strike occurred. I am sure if we decide to take data, we will get more dead bodies during the strike than ever before. It is unfortunate. Healthcare is devolved to county governments. However, I think Senators, as Members of the national Government, ... view
• 17 Apr 2024 in Senate: Thank you, Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir. Madam Cabinet Secretary, I have just been wondering; actually, the morgues are now full. The patients are not being attended to and they are dying. Does the Government realize that this is a matter of life and death? How long will this go on, seriously?

• 17 Apr 2024 in Senate: we continue losing lives just for the Government to take its time to honor the Collective Bargaining Agreement (CBA)? It really hurts. Number two, we have also realized that interns are normally sent to work in facilities without supervision. This of course is a risk without any professionals being around. I am wondering because we are talking about deaths and interns who are unsupervised. I do not know how this issue is going to be tackled, but, please, our people are dying, Madam Cabinet Secretary. Kindly, do something. view

• 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
• 7 Mar 2024 in Senate: I think I will mention the others as I am coming to Statements, Motions and so on. My dear sister, Sen. Shakila Abdalla, you are also there, but I wanted to mention you in other words. I have also mentioned Sen. Kavindu Muthama. view
