• 8 Apr 2025 in Senate: Thank you, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. I also rise to support the statement by Sen. Cherarkey. There is a cardinal rule when you want to do demolitions. First, you have to give notice and possibly engage the citizens who are operating those businesses because they have invested. More importantly, before you demolish, the county government or even the national Government has a mechanism to make sure that these people understand what is happening. The best thing is to identify alternative land for them in good time, so that if they are on land meant for a road bypass or road ... view
• 2 Apr 2025 in Senate: Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir. Recently there was a riot by the refugees in Kakuma Camp and within a week, a chartered Kenya Airways flight flew quite a number of them to Germany. This happened about three weeks ago.

• 2 Apr 2025 in Senate: Thank you, Mr. Speaker, for giving me an opportunity to comment on the Statement in relation to exportation of labour from Kenya.

I thank you, ... view
• 2 Apr 2025 in Senate: Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir. When I was Secretary of the Ministry of Co-operatives, the issue was that farmers used to deposit their milk there daily. Therefore, they built their shares on a daily basis and the assets belonged to them. The ownership of cooperatives is usually on equal basis. One farmer will not have a bigger share than the other. So, what effort has been made to make sure that there is record for the litres of milk and that it forms part of the ownership of the farmers which now informs the current value of the assets? Could ... view
• 2 Apr 2025 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I am very happy to receive the delegation from Makueni County Assembly. I am sure that by the time they are through with the learning tour, they will be better MCAs in the County of Makueni. view
• 2 Apr 2025 in Senate: So far, the County of Makueni has done very well in learning and implementing the same at the county level. We have received quite a number of delegations and the input has been good back home. view
• 2 Apr 2025 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I pass my warm welcome to them. They must have come with mangoes and oranges because they are still in season. view
