• 30 Jul 2019 in Senate: Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir. In recognition of these and many other leaders we have lost, it is high time cancer was declared a national disaster. We should in this case provide free treatment and look into the issue of research to ascertain whether it is lifestyle behaviour or the type of food that is causing cancer. Every weekend we are burying people. When we bury ten people on a weekend, seven of them will have died of cancer. Even right now, there are very many people that are suffering from it. I thank God that, after a short while, ... view
• 24 Jul 2019 in Senate: Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir. I rise pursuant to Standing Order No.48(1), to seek a Statement from the Standing Committee on Tourism, Trade and Industry on the measures taken to protect lions which are vulnerable to extinction.

Outline the efforts that have been put in place by the Government and Kenya Wildlife Service (KWS) to address the management of the dwindling lion population and the measures taken to develop a policy that would ensure enforcement of these efforts; 2.

• 23 Jul 2019 in Senate: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I also rise to support the Statement because we have issues with boda boda operators and that is a challenge. However, they provide employment to our youth who do not have jobs. It is one mode of transport that is cheap and people can access different terrains in this country using them. The bone of contention is that the Committee should look into the issue of training boda boda riders. The reason they keep criss-crossing and causing a lot of accidents all the time is because of lack of training. A person can just get hold ... view

• 23 Jul 2019 in Senate: Thank you, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. I thank the following Senators for contributing to this Bill; Sen. (Dr.) Musuruve, Sen. Kasanga and Sen. (Rev.) Waqo. I am sure that were it not for the fact that we have just passed a very contentious Bill, there would have been more Senators to contribute to this Bill. view
• 23 Jul 2019 in Senate: I am sorry, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. It is a very important Bill. I stand advised. view
• 23 Jul 2019 in Senate: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, museums are very important because of the fact that apart from preserving culture, the most important thing is that they are centres for research and they also form the basis of employment. Nowadays, the major challenge in our country is unemployment. We can create employment through the museums. This will prevent many of the youths from going to the big cities in search of jobs. Museums will create employment to the youths as well as many other business opportunities. Apart from that, museums play a very important role in enhancing cohesion and promoting peace. The coming ... view
• 23 Jul 2019 in Senate: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I request that you defer the putting of the question to a later date, pursuant to Standing Order No.61 (3), since we do not have the requisite number to vote . view
