• 17 Mar 2020 in Senate: If you look at the dining hall during lunch time, it is so crowded that if there is anybody who is infected, then everybody is in danger. Therefore, going on recess is one way of protecting ourselves, and not running away from our responsibilities. My worry is that we are talking about 14 or 30 days. I do not know what will happen in those 14 and 30 days. This is a pandemic that has just started. We are asking people to self-quarantine for 14 days, but we do not know what will happen thereafter. view
• 17 Mar 2020 in Senate: You can go ahead. view
• 17 Mar 2020 in Senate: Thank you very much Sen. Ochillo-Ayacko for the information. I still think even when schools close, they always give some time limit. My worry regarding this time being given is that what will happen next? I hope in that period we will be able upscale our preparedness and also deal with the issue of vaccines so that this matter is dealt with properly. view
• 17 Mar 2020 in Senate: This morning I was reading in the newspapers that the isolation wards are not very secure. People who are isolated are actually mingling with the other patients very freely and the staff are also mingling freely with others. I think we must take this seriously. Kenyans are facing a very serious matter and usually we take it very lightly. view
• 17 Mar 2020 in Senate: The Governor of Mombasa County said he closed all the bars. What about the clubs and bars in Nairobi and all those places where people idle? I think they must be shut down so that we do not have all these people congregating and just idling around and saying that COVID-19 is not there. view
• 17 Mar 2020 in Senate: Madam Temporary Speaker, as we take this step today as Parliament, let us also demand that the National Committee which is giving press briefs every time; that Parliament must also be briefed accordingly because we are also doing that work; and so that we can take our duty seriously. view
• 17 Mar 2020 in Senate: With those many remarks I support. I think in the next 14 days things will be better so that we can come back to our schedule. view
• 17 Mar 2020 in Senate: Earlier on when we were debating whether we would adjourn for 14 or 30 days, I was wondering because - with a light touch when we came back on 11th February we hardly passed any Motion here because we had no quorum. Members let us take our job seriously. Several times we were not able to have a division in this House in the last three weeks because every time we have no quorum. view
• 17 Mar 2020 in Senate: Let us ensure that by the time we resume from the break we know at least we have done some serious work. The electronic version of the Senate Hansard Report is for information purposesonly. A certified version of this Report can be obtained from the Hansard Editor, Senate. view
• 17 Mar 2020 in Senate: I beg to support. view
