• 6 Jun 2019 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I will first respond to the one about Kajiado County. We had organised to visit the area but we went on recess. We are hoping to meet this month. Sen.

• 6 Jun 2019 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, regarding the Petition about Kajiado County, we have summoned the Cabinet Secretary (CS) for Water and Sanitation and invited Sen. Mutula Kilonzo Jnr., as a friend of the Committee. We asked the CS to bring a report which we are still waiting for. Upon receiving it, we will go to the ground to ascertain the matter. view

• 4 Jun 2019 in Senate: Thank you, Mr. Speaker Sir. I rise to support the Statement by Sen. (Dr.) Musuruve on inclusion of PWDs in employment.

Although it is provided in law that the women, the youth and PwDs are supposed to be considered in terms of procurement by the Government, in most cases, they are not. They continue to languish in poverty. It is also still a challenge to bring on board PwDs in the counties. We need serious consideration of that, so that in future, such people are also given some gainful employment. view
• 4 Jun 2019 in Senate: I thank Sen. (Dr.) Musuruve for having passion for this group of people. Since she has done well in the Senate, I am sure given a chance, many of them can also do well. view
• 4 Jun 2019 in Senate: I thank you. view
• 4 Jun 2019 in Senate: Thank you, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. Issues of mental health can easily cause controversy. As Sen. M. Kajwang has just said, sometimes when you undergo so much stress, somebody can easily be considered as having some mental illness. I was just reading a few minutes ago that there are very many “hustlers” in this country. Somebody decided to abuse the “hustlers”, and I am sure that can easily cause some kind of mental stress. I wish to thank Sen. Kasanga for bringing such a special amendment particularly at this time because of the fact that in our country, we have ... view
