Because of them, we ended up with a very robust healthy population. Today, if you go to all our counties, health is 95 per cent devolved, but what we have devolved are problems. You go to the villages, health centres, dispensaries and all ... view
• 6 Oct 2020 in Senate: If this Bill is passed, and I have no doubt it will, it is going to be a paradigm shift. We would want to see that the National Government prepare, in consultation, not only with the counties but with this Senate, the formulation of proper policy. Under our new Constitution, any policy formulated is legislated legislation. It must come to this House so that we improve on it and make it workable for the counties. I want to urge Sen. (Dr.) Zani that in Clause 10(2) which talks about the Committee that we are setting up in the counties for ... view
• 6 Oct 2020 in Senate: every direction in this Chamber because of poor public hygiene; shaking hands with somebody who has been sneezing and he stretches his hand to shake yours.

One would be taken to the village elder and punished. They would be made to go sweep the local market and be humiliated before their children and wife when they see a grown up sweeping the market. However, these were very ... view
• 6 Oct 2020 in Senate: How long does it take to eliminate pools of water outside your house? It takes very little time but you will find men in the market every day, playing “ Ubao” and all sorts of games instead of looking after personal hygiene for themselves and their families. view

Mr. Speaker, Sir, one would have thought that when we decided to move away from the 8-4-4 system, which was functioning quite well, we could have aligned our education system with the East African region, where Uganda, Tanzania, Rwanda and Burundi, with whom we share common heritage and many interests, including the EAC, who are running the 7-4-2-3 system of education. Instead, we have moved to ... view
