• 16 Sep 2021 in Senate: Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir. As far as the issue of Laikipia is concerned, the Committee is doing its best. I want to explain the fact that a third of this county is occupied by pastoralists. Pastoralists are livestock farmers. That is their livelihood. Therefore, pastoralists have a lot of respect for their animals. They are ready to defend those animals with their lives. In Laikipia County, people have fenced their land and there are many pastoralists. Every time Sen. Olekina speaks about Laikipia matters, he is fond of talking about the Maasai and Samburu, but he forgets that the ... view

• 16 Sep 2021 in Senate: I strongly condemn what the military is doing in Laikipia County. They are killing our animals. Cattle are so dear to Samburus, Turkanas and Maasais. Therefore, for the military to kill 5,000 cattle is not right. It is very painful to pastoralists. The same thing happened in Uganda when Turkanas went to Uganda to look for grass and water. Their cattle were stolen by Ugandans and they had to go for them, but the Ugandan army took those cows. To date, we do not know what happened to our animals. The Uganda Government is not helping us to get our ... view
• 16 Sep 2021 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, it is unbelievable that our military personnel are killing our people. South Sudanese invade our country with big guns and our military looks helpless. How is it that they are now killing innocent pastoralists in Laikipia County? It is out of order. You do not expect them to fire at pastoralists and kill their animals. Every time they kill animals, they create poverty because those people depend on those animals to live. When you kill them, you are leaving poor people behind. As somebody said here, the Government needs to find a way to avail grass and ... view

• 14 Sep 2021 in Senate: Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir. I also support this Statement by Sen. Kwamboka. The Coronavirus Disease (COVID-19) is here with us, and is out there throughout the world. It is really affecting our country by the fact that business is closed, as Sen. Madzayo just said. So many people are forced to go home, and in the process, it is actually affecting the economy of our country. In my view, I do not think we are going to eliminate this disease. When you are faced with a problem like this, we need to think about how we can work with ... view

• 14 Sep 2021 in Senate: who are those people on the roads at the wee hours of the night or around 11.00 p.m. and 12.00 a.m.? Who are the people on the road? Those same people are the ones that are probably getting through by giving a little money to those who are supposed to stop people from travelling. Therefore, they travel and spread the disease. It does not make sense to say that we should close our bars at a certain time and go home, because there are others who are still traveling and spreading the disease in the process. That somehow brings a ... view
