• 29 Sep 2015 in Senate: Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, I thank you for recognizing me to speak. First, allow me to thank my friend and neighbour Sen. (Prof.) Lesan, for introducing this important and timely Bill to this august House. For a long time, this country has focused itself on the rights of women and children and forgotten their source; the rights of the aged. I am happy because for the first time in the history of this country, the Constitution of Kenya 2010 now recognizes the rights of the aged as fundamental human rights. We might quarrel about definitions but I have no problem ... view
