• 8 Mar 2022 in Senate: Oh, Yes. It was a scary moment, but then, she managed to land it very carefully and later on, we did realize that there were a number of pilots who had a challenge landing. This is a great woman; one of the many women we celebrate today. Unfortunately, as the Chairperson of the Standing Committee on Education, I know many women are left out of such great jobs because they do not undertake Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics (STEM) courses. They fear the STEM courses and, therefore, as we move along the career lines, they will not be there. As ... view

• 8 Mar 2022 in Senate: Madam Temporary Speaker, I celebrate my two great lady professors from my two universities. One, Prof. Olive Mugenda, the former Vice Chancellor of Kenyatta University, where I studied my MBA degree and Prof. Mabel Imbuga, the Vice Chancellor of Jomo Kenyatta University of Agriculture and Technology (JKUAT), where I obtained my PhD degree. Those two are great women, who were able to turn around the two institutions, looking at the two institutions, when the women took over, there was a great revolution. Those universities started taking many students. Many courses were started that have contributed to the development of this ... view

• 8 Mar 2022 in Senate: It is unfortunate that my county lost a great lady governor, the late hon. (Dr.) Joyce Laboso, who was a very aggressive lady. I know she would have done a lot for Bomet County. She was one of the first three elected governors that have shown us the way. I am sure others will get in that particular field without any fear. I celebrate the many other women that are toiling in the fields. Many women in Bomet County pluck tea. They have to collect firewood and do many other odd jobs to put food on the table. Those are ... view
• 8 Mar 2022 in Senate: Madam Temporary Speaker, thank you for this great information. It is unfortunate when roads are mentioned, some people become jittery. However, I mentioned it in good faith. Thank you, Sen. Sakaja, for mentioning that ugly incident where a woman was sexually assaulted and harassed occurred along Prof. Wangari Mathaai’s Road. We all remember the late Prof. Wangari Maathai was a great lady worth celebrating because she also went through a lot of challenges protecting our forests during her life time. Right now, the whole world is now grappling with the issues of climate change and yet she was beaten left, ... view
• 17 Feb 2022 in Senate: Thank you, Madam Temporary Speaker, for the chance to support this Statement. Firstly, I thank Sen. Ngugi for bringing this Statement. It is an important Statement that will come to my committee and I know we will get to the bottom of the matter. view
• 17 Feb 2022 in Senate: The critical issue in this Statement is the fact that re-constitution of the Board is long overdue. This particular Board was domiciled in the Ministry of Education because there were many people offering courses in technology across the country just like the teaching profession. view
• 17 Feb 2022 in Senate: There were private colleges training teachers but when it came to registration by the Teachers Service Commission (TSC), it was said that those teachers were not qualified. People trained in technology were many because many colleges had come up to train technologists and engineers at different levels yet some of them were not up to standard. For that reason, the Ministry of Education had to ensure this particular Board is under it, so that they can maintain standards and ascertain quality so that before offering certifications, the students are deemed to be trained well. view
• 17 Feb 2022 in Senate: We have had a number of structures collapsing after construction. Some of those buildings go up to five-storeys but collapse and injure people. Such buildings are done by unqualified people who got their certificates from questionable institutions. view
