• 15 Oct 2019 in Senate: Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, I thank you for giving me the opportunity to join my colleagues in congratulating Eliud Kipchoge. I thank Sen. Cheruiyot for coming up with this Motion. It was such a wonderful moment for all of us in Kenya to watch Eliud Kipchoge run to the last point and win in a very colourful manner. I agree with fellow colleagues who have said that it brought the unity of purpose in this country. When we saw him holding the Kenyan flag, all of us had goose bumps because we felt good about it. I congratulate him and ... view
• 15 Oct 2019 in Senate: We have had athletes in this country who renounced their citizenship and quit the country. We have some who went to Bahrain and now they are called Hussein. We have some who went to Qatar, we even have Danish-Kenyans. We have Kenyans all over. What are they lacking to make them go? They are going because they feel as though they are not well-appreciated well taken care of. The electronic version of the Senate Hansard Report is for information purposesonly.

Since he was short of 10 seconds to win a two hour marathon, he was ready to put his money on the table and make him win. The most touching thing that happened is ... view
• 15 Oct 2019 in Senate: Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, I think that is what the international sponsor was trying to prove to the international community that actually a human being can stretch. If you reward a child, we know they can do everything for the sake of the father or the mother. We all learned a lot of lessons out of this. The fact that this young Kenyan was recognized and identified by somebody who is not a Kenyan, was even more amazing to me. He really believed that he can use him to make the world stretch. We should all be able to stretch. ... view
• 15 Oct 2019 in Senate: We know that our footballers have tried on their own; they have struggled. Sometimes they have travelled without per diem. We have sat and assumed that they can be able to survive on their own. There are so many things that Kenyans have struggled on their own. Why should they struggle on their own and yet when they win, the flag they are carrying is ours? We should be able to sponsor them, train them and ensure that they are fully facilitated. Whatever facilities that are required for them to train well, we need to be able to fund them ... view
