• 25 Jun 2013 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I want to thank Sen. Ndiema for that information. Let me finish by saying this: This country must undertake serious agrarian reforms. We must re-profile our land tenure system. We must move away from the feeling and belief that for one to be anybody in this country, they must own land. That is where the problem lies. For a country with just about 20 per cent of our land arable, we must change our psyche and attitude about land. I oppose the amendment and will also oppose the main Motion. view
• 25 Jun 2013 in Senate: Thank you, Madam Temporary Speaker. The distinguished Senator for West Pokot - you can see the making of a dictator arrogating himself powers that he will never have. This Motion, in spirit, is good to the extent that we need to help counties to develop and assist our people in near similar developmental activities around the country. The Motion coming from the Committee on Devolution and Planning, I do not know whether it is a personal Motion by the distinguished Senator for Elgeyo-Marakwet or it is a Motion from the Committee. Whatever it is, I would want to see a ... view
• 25 Jun 2013 in Senate: Madam Temporary Speaker, it is obvious that my learned junior was mesmerized by my language and forgot the facts. I never said that there are areas which cannot produce and nurture talent. I said that we are in a country where tribalism, nepotism, sectionalism – name it – are the order of the day.

• 25 Jun 2013 in Senate: for those who do not understand Kiswahili language, refers to rich people. Madam Temporary Speaker, the children of rich people in the urban areas and in cities go to school at 7.00 a.m. from Mondays to Fridays; on Saturday they are in school, half of Sunday they are in school, the teachers are teaching them and by the time when they are in Standard Eight and it is May, they are through with the syllabus; the rest is revision to wait for examinations. The same happens to the Form Four students. But in the countryside, children go to do biology ... view
• 25 Jun 2013 in Senate: We must rationalize this. Madam Temporary Speaker, this Motion talks of resources, functions and powers. However, I am not so much interested in functions and powers. I am more interested in resources. If these Senators say in every county, no primary school shall be left without proper classrooms of approved standards by the Ministry responsible for public works, this must happen. This is so that you do not just go to a place and you find one school looks like a Four Star hotel; you go to the next village and a school looks like--- I do not know what ... view
