• 25 May 2023 in Senate: Thank you, Mr Deputy Speaker, Sir. I also rise to comment on the three Statements that have been sought by the Senator for Kirinyaga. I will start with the sad Statement he is seeking about Baby Ridhwan Yasir Noor’s finger. It is very sad. The Standing Committee on Health must pronounce itself on these occurrences in our health facilities. It is not fair that every time a Senator comes here seeking Statements on issues that are suspected to be as a result of medical negligence. I do not want to comment because I know the Committee on Health will do ... view
• 24 May 2023 in Senate: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, you told us to be quoting the Standing Order we think is out of order, and I want to quote Standing Order 101(3); Contents of Speech. It says- “It shall be out of order to use offensive or insulting language whether in respect of Senators or other persons.” view

• 24 May 2023 in Senate: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I find it very offensive that my good Chairman, Sen. M. Kajwang’, finds colleagues not of the capacity to serve in any Committee. I believe all of us are gifted differently. You cannot say about those of us elected or specially elected that there is none that came here by mistake or accident and that there is none of us that does not have any capacity to serve anywhere in any capacity and role in a Committee. In any case, for him to insinuate that Sen. Cherarkey cannot speak for anybody, is again an insult to ... view
• 3 May 2023 in Senate: Thank you, Madam Temporary Speaker. This is my line Ministry. I am the Chairperson of the Standing Committee on Land, Environment and Natural Resources. I want to portray leadership and the right direction. You have heard the Cabinet Secretary (CS) refer to Nyandarua County, which I represent, in the issues of issuance of title deeds for the colonial villages. I confirm that from where I sit, since this administration came into power, the people of Nyandarua are big beneficiaries of the good work that is being done by the Ministry of Lands, Public Works, Housing and Urban Development. Out of ... view

• 3 May 2023 in Senate: Thank you, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, for giving me this opportunity to support this report of the Committee on Devolution and Intergovernmental Relations. I almost fell for the invitation by Sen. Faki to speak in Swahili. However, I know I would have gotten lost midway. Allow me to stick to English. The question raised by Senator for Tharaka Nithi, Sen. Gataya Mo Fire, regarding the relocation of Government administration services from Chuka to Kathwana Town, the headquarters of Tharaka Nithi County could not be timelier than now. The country voted to have devolution to take resources and services closer to ... view

• 3 May 2023 in Senate: I have had the opportunity to look at the distances that we are talking about based on what has been brought by the Senator for Tharaka Nithi. A person from a place called Kathangachini in Tharaka Nithi travels for, at least, 200 kilometres to Chuka to access services. This is a distance that is twice that of the headquarters of Nyandarua and back to Nairobi which is an injustice that must be sorted out urgently. I congratulate the Senator for Tharaka Nithi for the intervention he is making. I do not want to be seen like I am disparaging the ... view
• 3 May 2023 in Senate: I have seen it happen in Nyandarua County and many other county headquarters that are rising from scratch. I would give an example of today, 12 years after devolution, the land registry for Nyandarua County is still in Nyahururu. We have not been able to move it to Ol Kalou. view
