• 10 Apr 2025 in Senate: Thank you, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. I rise to support the Statement by Sen. Methu. Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, autism and any other disorders or disabilities are quite widespread in the country and in the world. In Makueni County, I am aware of certain families whose children have that disorder. There is every effort by the current government to assist. It has been a national--- view
• 10 Apr 2025 in Senate: Thank you, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. This is a matter of national importance. In fact, it is a matter that can affect any family in the world. It is not anybody's design. There has been an outcry in the country over how we take care of our people with disabilities. There has also been a lot of problems associated with the funding of the National Council for Persons with Disabilities (NCPD). The electronic version of the Senate Hansard Report is for information purposesonly. A certified version of this Report can be obtained from the Director, Hansard and AudioServices, Senate. view
• 10 Apr 2025 in Senate: It is important if some research can be conducted and continues to be conducted, so that we are able to treat children who find themselves unfortunate to be born with this disorder. However, some are born without it, but acquire the disorder as they grow, which becomes a big burden to the families. I support Sen. Methu and seek that we improve the policy in the country, so as to generally relieve children of such pain and take care of people with disabilities. Thank you, Mr. Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. view
• 9 Apr 2025 in Senate: Sorry, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I just want to confirm whether the Cabinet Secretary in charge of Roads and Transport is available. I can also see that Sen. (Dr.) Murango is not here. Is there a possibility of interchanging the Cabinet Secretary, so that he comes when Sen. (Dr.) Murango is present? You cannot ask a Cabinet Secretary a question when the Senator is not available. view
• 9 Apr 2025 in Senate: Or maybe he had sent somebody to ask the Question on his behalf- -- view
• 9 Apr 2025 in Senate: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, Kindly confirm whether the Cabinet Secretary in charge of Roads and Transport is also available. view
• 9 Apr 2025 in Senate: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I would like to ask the Cabinet Secretary about transportation of seedlings. After being grown by the Ministry, they have to be transported to different areas for planting. That has been a problem in Kilungu Forest near Mukaa area, where farmers who work with the State Department for Forestry want to take seedlings to primary schools for planting, especially during this rainy season. However, there have been constant questions on the issue of transportation. Do you help to transport seedlings to areas where they should be planted? view
• 9 Apr 2025 in Senate: That you, Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir. The Cabinet Secretary has said that the airstrips belong to the Ministry of Interior and National Administration, and not the KAA. I, therefore, would like to ask him what the Ministry will do, so that that they have full control of the airstrips, bearing in mind that the airstrips are for evacuation purposes and emergency landing. Could he in that particular answer tell us the status of Makindu Airstrip, which is also on the flight line from Mombasa to Nairobi? view
• 9 Apr 2025 in Senate: Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, I beg to ask the Cabinet Secretary for Roads and Transport the following Question No.040- (1) Could the Cabinet Secretary provide a progress report on the construction of the Namanga-Kajiado-Loitoktok-Emali-Ukia-Itangini-Tawa-Masii-Mwala-Kithimani Road and explain the delay in completing the project? (2) What measures has the Government put in place to ensure that construction works on this road meet the required standards and could the Cabinet Secretary explain the deteriorating condition of the tarmacked stretch from Emali Town to Ndundune Market Centre, which is already riddled with numerous potholes? (3) What measures has the Government put in place ... view
• 9 Apr 2025 in Senate: Thank you, Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir. My question is regarding the roads under network A. The road network should be complete and effectively interlink all counties as well as connect to international roads. The Emali-Ukia-Itangini Tower section remains the only part that is not tarmacked, although it is currently undergoing routine maintenance. When will you tarmac Emali-Ukia-Itangini Road? All that area will be networked if roads are tarmacked and vehicles will move easily. view
