Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir. I wish to thank the two Senators for bringing such a very important Statement. The issue of the Corona Virus is a major challenge in the whole world, more particularly, because this virus may be mutating each and every moment. Looking at the country where this disease started, it is such a strong country, yet they have not been able to contain it. When we look at Kenya’s medical facilities, they are, indeed, very wanting especially when we talk about checking people who are entering our country. You wonder how somebody would be able to ...

We have had Members complaining about Petitions and a number of Bills that they put forward some months ago. I remember two Bills that I presented in the year 2018. Up to now, they are still stuck in a Committee that I do not want to mention.

That Committee will go a long way to ensure that they follow up this process. Madam Temporary Speaker, last time we tried forming this Committee, we went round getting signatures ...

The late President Moi was referred to as a passing cloud, but he led the country for 24 years. This is because he became a professor of politics, despite the fact that two of the largest tribes in the country did not support him. However, he managed to bring all of
