• 21 Dec 2020 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I pray that you give me more time because I come from the county that hosts the auction. First and foremost, I wish to congratulate my colleague, Sen. Cheruiyot, and the Committee on Agriculture, Livestock and Fisheries led by Sen. Ndwiga for this very important Bill. From the outset, I want to make it clear that I am not opposed to the tea farmers in Kenya gaining what they are supposed to gain for their hard-earned crops. However, view

• 21 Dec 2020 in Senate: there are several issues that I want to draw to your attention to in this Bill that was passed by the National Assembly. Mr. Speaker, Sir, first is Clause 24 (l) on the auction process. The Bill provides that all tea has to be taken through the auction in Mombasa. The demand at the moment and the supply of the tea in Mombasa are at variance. The supply is more than the demand that is coming up in the auction. If we allow all the tea to be sold through the auction, the market will be flooded and the prices ... view
• 21 Dec 2020 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, all those ten countries are served by the Mombasa Tea Auction. Any messing up with the auction is likely to affect the country and this will contribute to the decline in the purchase of tea in this country. Finally, as you have limited my time, the auction in Mombasa covers about 75 per cent of the tea that is sold in the country. The 15 per cent is sold by the private treaties and the other remaining five per cent or ten per cent is sold by the packers within the country. Mr. Speaker, Sir, it will ... view
• 17 Dec 2020 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I also have two clarifications to seek. One is from the County Assembly on whether the governor was furnished with notice of his impending impeachment and the grounds thereof before 3rd of December, 2020. Governor, why did you find it fit not to appear before the County Assembly for that particular impeachment? Thank you. view
• 1 Dec 2020 in Senate: Asante, Bw. Spika, kwa kunipa fursa hii. Kwanza ningependa kupongeza Kamati ya Ardhi, Mazingira na Maliasili kwa kushughulikia Ombi la watu wa Ganjoni kuhusiana na upakiaji wa iron ore katika maeneo yao. Ningependa kuthibitisha kwamba Kamati husika wakati walipokuja Mombasa kujadili swala hili. Ninawashukuru kwa kuwasikiza watu wetu.

• 1 Dec 2020 in Senate: Jambo la pili ni kwamba Ripoti ya Kamati iko sawa, lakini inatilia shaka utendakazi wa taasisi kadhaa za Serikali. Kwa mfano, ofisi ya National Environmental Management Authority (NEMA) iliruhusu vipi jambo kama hili kutendeka wakati eneo ambayo ilikua inafanyika ni eneo la makaazi? Wananchi wanatakikana kupumzika usiku, lakini usiku mzima ni kelele za upakiaji wa iron ore. Bw. Spika, mambo mengi ambayo sisi tunafanya yangepaswa kufanywa na taasisi huru za Serikali. Lakini kwa sababu ya utepetevu na uzembe wao, wamewacha haki nyingi za Wakenya kuendelea kudhulumiwa. Kwa hivyo, ninapendekeza kwamba Kamati ya Utekelezaji, yaani Implementation view
• 1 Dec 2020 in Senate: , irejeshwa katika Muhula unaofwata ili tuone kwamba maazimio ambayo Bunge linapitisha yanatekelezwa kikamilifu. view
