  • 3 Jul 2019 in Senate: Looking at the petitions that wananchi bring to these Houses, one would expect that more petitions will be going to the National Assembly. However, the number of petitions wananchi bring to this Houses are more than five times higher than those that go to the National Assembly. This is because wananchi out there believe that this is the House of reason and justice. I agree with those who have spoken before me, and said that we should not descend to that level. We must stand by the law and the Constitution. Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, the Statement made by the ... view

  • 3 Jul 2019 in Senate: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, now that we are in a constitutional moment and the Chairmen of the Building Bridges Initiatives (BBI), that is Sen. Wako and Sen. Haji, are from this House, we must aggressively pursue a constitutional change to restore the position of the Senate as to what the Senates are worldwide. Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, we have agreed that we are going to court. We already are embolden by the advisory of the Supreme Court which we all went to court, including yourself. The Supreme Court said that it is an unimaginable to think of any legislation that ... view
  • 3 Jul 2019 in Senate: Thank you, Madam Temporary Speaker. You are right. Musa is the Kiswahili version of Moses. I support this Motion and thank Sen. (Dr.) Ali for thinking this way. I have limited time and so, I will give a few points. I want to encourage Sen (Dr.) Ali that this Motion is good and has overwhelming support. We can join hands and draft an amendment to the Higher Education Loans Board Act so as to make what he is seeking in this Motion part of the law.

  • 3 Jul 2019 in Senate: Sen. (Dr.) Ali should bring regulations that will obligate employers by the law, to inform the HELB that so-and-so, who was a student at a particular time in an institution and benefited from the loans, has been employed by them. The employer will then be obligated to repay the loan on a check-off system, on their behalf, like other institutions have done. In those amendments, the employers of fresh graduates must also be obligated not to seek CRB recommendations because those fellows just go to the computer and look at who has a loan where; who has paid and who ... view
  • 2 Jul 2019 in Senate: Thank you, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. As the distinguished Senator for Kericho County has said, that Petition from a resident of Wajir County would pass for a petition from every county. It is not like the petitioner is calling upon us to legislate that there is absence of law. We have the Environmental Management and Co- ordination Act (EMCA) and the National Environment Management Authority (NEMA). The NEMA is immensely empowered to protect the environment and stop people from constructing on riparian land, stop dumping and make sure the environment is safe. We saw a move in the right direction ... view
  • 2 Jul 2019 in Senate: cities like London and Calcutta manage their solid waste? Wajir Town must be having a population of under 100,000, and is choking with solid waste.
