• 20 Nov 2019 in Senate: Thank you, Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir. I rise to support this Statement by Sen. Wetangula. Kenya borders four countries of East Africa. Kenya has lost land to these four countries. I am not sure why we are so scared that we cannot defend our own. If you live in Turkana County, you will understand what I am saying. We border Uganda and the people in Turkana know how far they go into Uganda. This is the part of Uganda where the Turkana have lived and know is part of Kenya. However, the Government of Kenya has let Uganda move its ... view
• 19 Sep 2019 in Senate: Thank you, Mr. Speaker Sir, for also giving the chance to thank Sen. Dr. (Ali) for bringing this particular Statement to the Floor. What the other Hon. Members have said is all true. This is to say that this is a serious problem in our country. Something must be done to stop the harassment and the embarrassment that some of our folks go through. Sometimes people think that Kenya is a small country, but when you consider somebody from Kibish in Turkana, who is on the border of Kenya and Ethiopia, and he or she has to travel to Nairobi ... view
• 19 Sep 2019 in Senate: grandparents identification documents. My God! Somebody like Prof. Malachy is the first one from his family to go the university. He is the first one to know the dates, according to the mzungu . However, others are simply just normal Turkana people. Therefore, when you ask for the identification card of my father, who cares, because he did not have one! Ask for the identification card of my grandfather, he did not have one! It is, therefore, just ridiculous that we ask our people to present things that we know do not exist. I do not know whether it is ... view
• 10 Sep 2019 in Senate: Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir, for giving me the chance to support this important Statement. It is important that we realise PWDs are human beings and should be respected in all ways. If they have to travel, go to a house or cross a road, there should be amenities that enable them to do such crossings or enter a particular building without any hindrance. Crossing streets is very hazardous for everybody, including ordinarily young people. It is even harder for PWDs and senior citizens who do not move as fast and should be considered as being disabled. Our motorists need ... view
• 19 Jun 2019 in Senate: seconded. view
• 18 Jun 2019 in Senate: Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir, for allowing me to also contribute to this Statement. I would like Kenyans to read their history and understand that during the time of enslavement, it was the Arabs who sold our people to White men and those are the people who found themselves in the Americas and other parts of the world. Secondly, you should also remember that today, there are no black people in Arab countries. The reason for this is that when our people were taken there, the men were castrated so that they would not produce any black people. Given that ... view
• 18 Jun 2019 in Senate: Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir, for protecting me from Sen. Kang’ata. Apparently, Sen. Kang’ata, being young, did not study his history. You need to read that history and find out a lot of the suffering that Africans experienced. Tippu Tip is one of those people who were buying our people and selling them off to foreigners to be enslaved. I am not particularly accusing Saudi Arabia but I am just saying Arab countries in general still have that mentality that black people are inferior and should be treated as slaves. That is the reason why when our people go to ... view
• 29 May 2019 in Senate: Thank you, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, for giving me the chance to contribute to this Statement about the question of unfairness to our citizens when their land is taken. Being a Member of the Committee on Roads and Transportation, I have been to many places where we have cases of people‘s homes being acquired for construction of roads without anything being given in return. In fact, in many places, people are told to go away. Some end up living on trees like birds. We found that The electronic version of the Senate Hansard Report is for information purposesonly. A certified ... view
• 29 May 2019 in Senate: annoying. I actually made a statement that people are not birds to live on trees without compensating them for their land. That is a big problem in this country. view
