• 24 Sep 2019 in Senate: We also have people working with the fisherfolk. Last year, we, as a county, were gratified when one of the beach management unit leaders, a person who is not known at the national level, was recognised for a Head of State Commendation (HSC). Mr. Edward Oremo, a beach management unit leader in Homa Bay County, eventually got an HSC. We were very excited and went to Alara Beach in Suba to celebrate that grand achievement of an HSC for a young person who has dedicated his life to fight for the fisherfolk. He is articulate and always available. Whenever the ... view
• 24 Sep 2019 in Senate: There are sportsmen like Michael Olunga. December last year, I sat with him in Kabondo Constituency, which is his constituency of birth. The intention was to have him inspire a generation of young players that they could be as great as him. I recall that when we had a conversation, his focus was on the Africa Cup of Nations (AFCON). He had just signed up for a team in Japan. He told the young men to watch the space and that he would go to the AFCON in Egypt and score. He was confident that Kenya would lift the Cup. ... view
• 24 Sep 2019 in Senate: Corporations like Nike and energy drinks makers are making billions of shillings out of these people, yet when they come back to Kenya, we do not take note of them. When we wake up for morning television shows, we would rather discuss what was said at the Mau rather than the record breaking and the world records that have been made by our athletes. If the national Government does not honour these people, then county governments should proactively ensure that they give them their highest honours. view
• 24 Sep 2019 in Senate: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, in Homa Bay County, there are people who have contributed immensely to leadership politically and at the social and community level. I have in mind people like the late Hon. Osingo Migure. Probably, nobody knows him, but this was the second Member of Parliament (MP) for the area called Suba. He died in poverty because those days, they came to Parliament to represent, legislate and to oversight. It has now become a known fact. In fact, the society has adopted the attitude that if you go to Parliament, even if you went there empty-handed, it is ... view
• 24 Sep 2019 in Senate: Whether it was Barabbas or another angel, the mobs would still decide that Christ was the one to be crucified. In our scenario, there will be cases where through this elaborate process, we will still get a Barabbas give national honours to them. What will we do if that Barabbas is inconsistent with the provisions and requirements of Chapter Six of the Constitution? view
• 24 Sep 2019 in Senate: Thank you, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. I hope the Barabbas story did not make Members uncomfortable in any way, but--- view
• 24 Sep 2019 in Senate: Yes, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. view
• 24 Sep 2019 in Senate: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, there needs to be a linkage between the County Hall of Fame Bill and the National Honours Act. That way, when the County Hall of Fame Act produces candidates or proposals, where there is a feeling that there are inconsistent--- view
• 24 Sep 2019 in Senate: Thank you, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. It has eliminated the little doubt that I had in mind. view
• 24 Sep 2019 in Senate: I was also counting the time and I am surprised that it had been truncated. view
