• 6 Jun 2019 in Senate: What bothers me is that we, the leaders, appear to have abandoned both the students and teachers. The problem of the handshake is that you have no opposition and nobody is asking any questions. view
• 6 Jun 2019 in Senate: .: Mr. Speaker, Sir, you are forced to take a National Integrated Identity Management System (NIIMS) number and if you do not, your phone is taken away. You are forced to do this and there is nobody to complain. We look as if we are all the same in one Government; Government of national something. This is such a confusion. view
• 6 Jun 2019 in Senate: All over Africa, Kenya has been distinguished because of its education. The xenophobia you see in South Africa is because they refused to go to school because the expatriates for various organisations are from Kenya. What do we do with them if they did not go to school and the people who can work there are Kenyans? Most of us are products of the 8-4-4 System and we still look fine. Do I not? view
• 6 Jun 2019 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, if we are going to correct something, it is better if we do it properly. For some reason, we fear Prof. Magoha. I do not know why. Let us tell him. However, Parliament including us, have abandoned the teachers of this country. That is why they can go to Kajiado County and suspend and interdict 58 teachers. After a court order is issued, the Teachers Service Commission (TSC) does nothing. Even after the court order has been issued in Kajiado County, they have gone ahead and appointed other headteachers. view
• 6 Jun 2019 in Senate: Senate Majority Leader, let me tell you how serious this is. I met a very senior lady in Nairobi City County. She asked a question during the training of Competency Based Curriculum (CBC) and she was transferred to a department from the Ministry of Education. How did we get to a system where you cannot ask a question? They are supposed to dictate the air you breathe. This is not the sort of thing we were looking at. In fact, the National Super Alliance (NASA) should have taken over the Government because I do not think we would have done ... view

• 6 Jun 2019 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, Sen. Murkomen should have responded. view
• 6 Jun 2019 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, the biggest problem is not NASA but Jubilee which has got Opposition in itself. That is where the problem is. I am talking about the real Opposition and not the one that is already in Jubilee. The fact that the Government has Opposition in itself is where you have CSs behaving as if they are on one side answering to one side of Government et cetera . We must call it as it is. view
• 6 Jun 2019 in Senate: There is a problem in this education sector. Hon. Sossion sits in the Committee on Education of the National Assembly and policies are supposed to come to the Government. Hon. Sossion complains there on behalf of teachers but we do not do anything. We have not been felt as Parliament. The Senate Majority Leader who is here and Sen. Cherargei get a lot of airtime out there when they criticize the Opposition when talking about some team that they belong to like the one Sen. Cherargei is famous for. However, we have not been seen as Parliament defending or speaking ... view
• 6 Jun 2019 in Senate: Secondly, allow everybody to understand it. If teachers are complaining---. I have asked this question; if you interdict teachers, will you bring mechanics to teach the new curriculum? Mr. Speaker, Sir, Sen. Murkomen has talked about doing homework, cutting newspapers and so on and he is a person who can download and print. What about Mama Mutheu and Mama Mwikali in Kathonzweni and Kikumbulyu in Makueni Constituency? What are they supposed to do? view
