• 3 Jun 2021 in Senate: I have looked at the Report by the Committee, and I do not know why my brother, Sen. M. Kajwang’, got carried away and made extravagant statements about the children that we were crying for because what is written in the Report is different from what he has said here. I do not know what agitated him to say those offensive words. view
• 3 Jun 2021 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, conferment of a city comes with responsibility. To whom more is given, much more is expected. If Nakuru gets city status, it becomes our fourth city in the country. I can already see my close neighbours, Eldoret, describing themselves as a city before we confer them the status. In today’s newspapers, it was written that the Eldoret City Marathon is coming up. I believe that in another 10 years, Bungoma should be on the Floor of this House seeking to become a city. view
• 3 Jun 2021 in Senate: However, we should not create cities for the sake of having them. They must change the landscape, aesthetics, and the value of life in their midst. We should be able to have a situation where anybody driving from Kericho to Nakuru sees the difference between a town and a city. Anybody driving from Naivasha to Nakuru should feel the difference between the town of Naivasha and a city. I am sure that Sen. Mutula Kilonzo Jnr., remembers this; in the old days in the UK you would not be conferred city status if you did not have a cathedral, a ... view

• 3 Jun 2021 in Senate: Member of Parliament at Independence. Nakuru had Wafula Wabuke, Lwali Oyondi, Mark Mwithaga elected there. If you look at those names, you can see Kenyans who come from extreme corners of the country coming into Nakuru, though not as cosmopolitan as Nairobi, but getting elected. That is the character of Nakuru that we want to see; a truly cosmopolitan city where Lwali Oyondi from a village in Butere stands and is elected as MP, is liked by everybody, serves everybody and becomes a successful person. I would want to encourage Nakuru to remain what it is. We have hon. Arama ... view
• 3 Jun 2021 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, how can you tell the nationality of any community in this country by looking at somebody? We are so intermingled and intermarried that nobody knows whether Sen. Poghisio is from South Sudan, Kisumu or Kakamega. How can you just look at somebody and say this must be from this community? It is a very disheartening act. I urge my friend, Gov. Lee Kinyanjui, that now this Senate is giving you a city. It is not giving you a city to do ethnic cleansing and to weed out children and go and dump them. Sen. Murkomen, what is ... view

• 3 Jun 2021 in Senate: that is consistent with expectations of the people of Kenya in general and the people of Nakuru in particular. Thank you. view
• 2 Jun 2021 in Senate: Thank you, Madam Deputy Speaker. I also join colleagues who have supported the gallant citizen from Kisii who has petitioned this House. It is a very unfortunate situation all over the country that governors do not seem to understand or even appreciate the line between public and private property to the extent that governors run counties as if they are personal entities even denying the public information or setting up critical organs that are part and parcel of what would made devolution succeed. I join the distinguished Senators who have spoken; Sen. Malalah, Sen. Cherargei, Sen. Mutula Kilonzo Jnr., and ... view
