• 29 Oct 2013 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I had earlier stated that the tradition in answering statements is such that the other members give their concerns and finally the questioner concludes.

• 29 Oct 2013 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I am responding to a Statement sought by Sen. (Prof.) Lonyangapuo, which I replied to sometime in mid-October but it generated a lot of interest.

• 29 Oct 2013 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I am just brushing through because, generally, this is what the Members were interested in. They also wanted to know why this is called “older persons” cash transfer programme rather than “senior citizens” cash transfer programme. The term view

That is the cumulative figure up to that period that, that recipient has received. It is important to note that so that you do not say: “Per month, how is it that one person gets Kshs24,000?” view
• 29 Oct 2013 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I would like to thank the Chairman for the answer that he has given. The Meru and Isiolo people have lived together for many years. There are many people from the Meru Community within Isiolo and a few people from the Isiolo community within the Meru side. This matter of the boundary is going to be the new challenge to security, unless it is managed properly. view
