• 2 Oct 2019 in Senate: Mr. Temporary, Speaker, Sir, the manner in which the incident has been handled so far leaves Kenyans wondering if at all we have the so-called Disaster Management Unit that we normally hear about in Kenya. This unit is supposed to take care of any disaster in any eventuality where disasters can happen. This particular body has been mentioned, it exists in Kenya, and it earns money. There are personnel that are involved or are employed for this particular job. However, I think they are just earning money, which is going to waste. It is high time that Kenyans reviewed this ... view
• 2 Oct 2019 in Senate: . What are they view
• 2 Oct 2019 in Senate: , if at all such instances are happening in Kenya, and we do not really have anybody who can save lives? We have the Kenya Coast Guard, we have the--- view
• 2 Oct 2019 in Senate: Mr. Temporary, Speaker, Sir, I know that he just wants to understand me very well. I just tried to translate, so that it is well understood. Otherwise, I was still in my pure English. I was speaking in English and not in Kiswahili. I was just trying to make you, hon. Members, understand the point I am putting across. Mr. Temporary, Speaker, Sir, the ferry that we currently have in Kenya, as my colleagues have put it, do not have barriers to protect the vehicles. There are standing rules that are supposed to be put in place when such services ... view
• 2 Oct 2019 in Senate: as we are being told, it pains that a vehicle can slide into waters because a ferry did not have a barrier. We have lost lives of a mother and a daughter in a very horrifying situation I demand that action be taken against the management of KFS because they slept on their job. I also demand that this Government overhauls all the ferry services. We cannot continue seeing our dear ones dying because of their negligence. These are not the only lives lost in our waters. view
• 2 Oct 2019 in Senate: Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, it is sad to see such deaths happening. It is a shame for the management of KFS not to take their work seriously. If they did, they would have saved lives of the two who perished in the raging waters. We, as a nation, are traumatised by these deaths. view
• 1 Oct 2019 in Senate: Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir, for giving me this opportunity to support the Bill on establishment of children’s homes by Sen. (Dr.) Mzungumzishi. view
• 1 Oct 2019 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I just quoted. The same way they normally say “super Senator.” So, I was just relating to Senator Mzungumzishi, but I withdraw. The electronic version of the Senate Hansard Report is for information purposesonly. A certified version of this Report can be obtained from the Hansard Editor, Senate. view
• 1 Oct 2019 in Senate: As much as many of us are enjoying lives in this country, the regulatory frameworks that our Senator has brought in this Bill are appealing and timely. I really want to support and congratulate her for this Bill. If you look through this Bill, it has actually managed to address all the areas that need to be looked at in the establishment of a Children’s Home within the country. Mr. Speaker, Sir, the promotion of the welfare of these children, including their education; medical care, supervision amongst other things have been addressed in this Bill. This is important because the ... view
• 1 Oct 2019 in Senate: If you look at the other section that promotes and protects the status and well- being of these children, the safety and security of these children is important. Just as my colleagues have said, most of the children have been molested. We need these homes to be totally secure and be homes where a child can be well brought up. This Bill will ensure that the children who are raised in these homes do not regret the life that they lived there. Mr. Speaker, Sir, I support the Bill and I urge that when it is assented to, be implemented ... view
