• 2 Jun 2020 in Senate: Madam Temporary Speaker, you can see that I am shouting and suffocating. If I could have gotten the right masks at the door, I do not think I would be suffocating. We need the right masks. view
• 2 Jun 2020 in Senate: Madam Temporary Speaker, I am here. view
• 2 Jun 2020 in Senate: Thank you, Madam Temporary Speaker. I would like to support the Statement by Sen. Omogeni on the way the demolitions are being done in this country. Recently, you saw the demolitions that were done in Kariobangi in Nairobi City County. We are now hearing about other demolitions being done in his county. This is not the right time to demolish anybody’s house or habitat. During this time of COVID-19, where would one run to, especially with the lockdown? It is so sad when people rush to demolish a habitat or a place where people stay, just to expose those people ... view
• 2 Jun 2020 in Senate: I support the Statement by Sen. Omogeni because it is not the right time. Why should you demolish the residence of somebody when you do not have a place to relocate his family? Mr. Speaker, Sir, we have seen people suffer in Nairobi City County and other counties. It should stop--- view
• 2 Jun 2020 in Senate: I am Sorry, Madam Temporary Speaker. It is good that we have more ladies. This Statement should not take long because it has taken long to resettle our people whose residences have been demolished. We are not seeing any Government officials working towards resettling these families. It is high time people were left to stay where they are. If there are any court orders to evict them, they can be enforced after we have dealt with COVID-19 pandemic. view
• 2 Jun 2020 in Senate: Thank you, Madam Temporary Speaker for giving me this opportunity to contribute to the Reproductive Health Bill. I want to salute Sen. Kihika for coming up with this Bill because it touches on the life of human beings. It also touches on the life of the community because life begins with a mother. When we have a Bill on reproductive health and when you see how clauses have been arranged here, then we note that there is a lot that we need to applaud Sen. Kihika for. I want to go straight to the point that my colleague has touched ... view
• 2 Jun 2020 in Senate: Nowadays health practitioners divulge their clients’ or patients’ medical conditions before informing them and that is when you find strangers talking about people’s health. An example is the COVID-19 disease that we are living with right now; you find that everyone is a suspect and everyone is stigmatized. When this Bill becomes law, it will limit information leaking to people who are not necessarily supposed to be the owners or authors of that information. It is important that confidentiality as enacted here, especially with the regard to health practitioners, remains the way it is. I fully support this Bill because ... view
• 2 Jun 2020 in Senate: Madam Temporary Speaker, I congratulate her again. Let us all support this Bill because it stands not only for women, but the community. It stands for the Ministry of Health because it strengthens it more than what it was. If the Ministry of Health has such Bills, then it has the right to make the information reach a common citizen who needs to know what is there and what is meant for them. view
• 2 Jun 2020 in Senate: I thank everyone who has contributed. It is a good Bill, and I support. view
• 28 Apr 2020 in Senate: Thank you, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, for giving me this opportunity to contribute to the Ad Hoc Committee Report on COVID-19. I will start by thanking the Committee Chair and the Members, who have worked round the clock to make this Report. view
