• 12 Apr 2023 in Senate: society and the just government of the people.” Therefore, this sort of legislation is extremely important. It is not the only one. There are quite a number of other laws, other Acts of Parliament which have to still be enacted under the provisions of the Constitution to meet different purposes, especially economic and social rights, so that we have a just society. We should have a society where when you want to register a company and you are a foreigner or you are a local person, it is efficient. We have a situation whereby if there is human rights violation ... view
• 11 Apr 2023 in Senate: Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir. We are delighted to welcome this team. It is a big team of 26. Yesterday, we went to Turkana County, particularly, Kakuma Camp. They are on a mission in the country to promote education, especially to disadvantaged children. That is why they are accompanied by the CEO of Save the Children Fund of the USA. In fact, I am a beneficiary of Save the Children Fund, UK. It took me to Starehe Boys Centre when it was fundraised by Princess Anne.

• 29 Mar 2023 in Senate: Thank you Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. This is a very serious and emotive matter. As Hon. Sen. Osotsi has stated, it was already before the National Assembly in the 12th Parliament, and it has escalated over a long time.

The place is being fenced and they are being fenced inside and that the place should have been gazetted for settlement, ... view

• 29 Mar 2023 in Senate: I am pleading with the committee to move the speed so that because it has been a long time promise of the government, that it can be fulfilled. Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, this has also happened in the case of resettling people in other forests.

• 29 Mar 2023 in Senate: Yes, I will be brief. I rise to support that Statement by a wonderful Senator. The place of PWDs in this country has been left without proper structures. At times, they either fall under national or county Government. It is really hard. I urge the Senators and Members of Parliament to give them a special place. For instance, I have taken one or two PWDs as part of my employees. It is one way of view

• 29 Mar 2023 in Senate: helping and encouraging them. I have an elderly staffer who works in my office, but looks like a seven-year-old. We really need to support the course of PWDs. We should make sure that the ones who are hidden in the villages come out and are able to go to school. I believe there is a wonderful Senator who is well learned and was able to become a Senator. All these people have a chance and they are much abled to do whatever a normal person can do. I support. Mr. Deputy Speaker, allow me to welcome the delegations in the ... view
