• 30 Jul 2019 in Senate: Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir, for giving me this opportunity to support the Statement by Sen. Malalah. Not many people can get the courage to bring such a Statement to be discussed in this House. I congratulate Sen. Malalah for that. view
• 30 Jul 2019 in Senate: We all embrace our Constitution and the opportunities that have been given in it. However, when you see the distribution of opportunities especially high cadre opportunities in the Government, you will be ashamed. Even if the list will come – seeing as we are requesting for it - you will be dismayed to find that only people from one region or community are the ones who are employed in the lucrative areas. What is the need then, of us, Kenyans, educating our children? What is the need of us investing in our children and communities if in the end, all ... view
• 30 Jul 2019 in Senate: opportunities are given to the same people and in a biased way? If you look at the embassies and State agencies, you will find that they have employed people from the same community. We are not ashamed to say that these people need to change this culture. It is a heartbreaking culture especially here in Kenya. It is also trickling down to county governments. When this list comes, I would wish to be a friend of the Committee so that I can also give my contribution. Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir. view
• 30 Jul 2019 in Senate: Thank you, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. I will be very brief. I stand to support The Cancer Prevention and Control (Amendment) Bill, 2019. I would like to start by sending my condolences to the family of the late hon. Okoth and hon. (Dr.) Laboso. These are two great leaders who had an opportunity, and true to their word, were dedicated to their work. They were public servants from whom we were expecting a lot in service to this country.

• 30 Jul 2019 in Senate: friends and relatives. For the shortest time that I knew the late hon. (Dr.) Laboso, I admired all that she did as a woman leader in the political world. I will miss a friend, a leader and companion. I stand here because the late hon. Okoth was a Member of my political party, and we shared a lot despite his sickness. I want to say that 26th and 29th of this month, happened to be two dark days in our lives, especially as leaders. We lost leaders from whom we were expecting a lot. May the Lord Almighty God rest ... view
• 25 Jul 2019 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I join you in welcoming the students from Uasin Gishu and Embu counties. It is a pleasure to see such cheerful students in the House who have come to see what we do in the Senate. We congratulate the teachers who made the effort to bring the young pupils to this Chamber. I also congratulate the parents for supporting the teachers to bring the students here. Being here is an added advantage to the students to see exactly what we do in the Senate, so that we can inspire them to be future leaders. view
• 25 Jul 2019 in Senate: Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir, for giving me this opportunity to support this Statement by Sen. Seneta. It is sad to see that our country still has short cuts of selling goods and services that are unworthy to human beings. People engage in such businesses that touch on people’s lives, for example, selling poisonous meat in the supermarkets because they want to make quick money which is always dangerous. It is not good to practice this on human life. Mr. Speaker, Sir, as a Member of the Senate Committee on Health, when we get this Statement, we are ready to ... view
