  • 22 Mar 2023 in Senate: Madam Temporary Speaker, you have given guidance to this House regarding the debate. Is it in order for the Senator of Nairobi to keep talking about the short man syndrome by Members of the majority side? He should utilize his time to debate. We are patient but we do not take it kindly when Senators seem to threaten the Chair all the time. Can we have good debate in this House? Sen.

  • 16 Mar 2023 in Senate: Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, I rise in support of this Motion on the appointment of Members of the Council for Climate Change.

  • 16 Mar 2023 in Senate: Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, the biggest threat to our rivers is urbanization and management of solid waste. A number of towns in this country lack proper sewerage system and you find all the raw sewer being discharged into our rivers. If we do not mitigate this matter by ensuring that all major urban areas, towns and cities are provided with proper sewer lines, our rivers are going to be continuously polluted. view
  • 16 Mar 2023 in Senate: I propose that even in towns and cities where we have rivers that run across, there is need for change of policy under urban planning to ensure that all rivers become the frontage of the homes and all the commercial centres, so that there is no waste being dropped in the rivers when it becomes a frontage. view
