• 13 Oct 2021 in Senate: It is important that we find names of visual things that we cannot move around in the description of these boundaries. In the case of Kajiado, it describes a hill where you find masts in the valley. They are right inside. If you go and see the hill, the boundary of Kajiado and Makueni is around ten kilometres in from those masts. You cannot move that hill as a physical mark, but you can move a road. view
• 13 Oct 2021 in Senate: Madam Temporary Speaker, it says that the boundary in Mtito Andei is the Tsavo River. Unless there is an earthquake, you cannot move the river. That is why this is important. There are so many cases that we are doing now. I am glad that Sen. Sakaja is here. Nowadays when you want to check your land, you just look for the Geographic Information System (GIS). If you want to know your piece of land, we are now doing GIS in Konza. They give you a mark. You go to your computer and can check your piece of land right ... view

• 13 Oct 2021 in Senate: Madam Temporary Speaker, without belabouring the point, I move that this Bill be read a second time. I hope that we can get this done. Although the Speaker said that this is not a campaign platform, I just hope that if I am elected, I do not have to deal with these issues of boundaries when I go to Makueni. The physical boundary between us and Kajiado is just a line in the sand. When we buy cattle from the people of Kajiado, where you come from, we do not look at boundaries. We look at your beautiful cows. When ... view
• 13 Oct 2021 in Senate: Thank you, Madam Temporary Speaker. I thank the Senators who have contributed, including Sen. Murkomen, Sen. Sakaja, Sen. Cherargei and Sen. Omogeni for their valued contribution to this very important cause. view
• 13 Oct 2021 in Senate: Other than reiterating what they had said before, the history we have heard from Sen. Sakaja and Sen. Murkomen is important for the record. The record will reflect that the people to protect counties in reality is us. This is because the counties were left hanging. The people who wanted 47 counties just made a compromise. Who knows? One day, we might find somebody who is not interested in these counties. view
• 13 Oct 2021 in Senate: To anchor this properly in law is the security we require. That Article in the Constitution that talks about protection of counties now relates squarely to this law. This Bill, in its entirety, is trying to protect counties. For avoidance of doubt - and I have said this before - let us not also forget that we are not demarcating the country. We are just finding a place for everybody to live peacefully and find reason to work properly. view
• 13 Oct 2021 in Senate: Once counties are properly defined, there is no reason for portions of those counties to be left behind. I have seen the history of boundaries. Every place where either a constituency, ward or county ends, more often than not, are ignored and neglected. This is a reminder for our governors, ward representatives and everybody else, that every part of the county matters. Every part mentioned in this Bill belongs to your county and should not be left behind. I was in a campaign recently where the Governor of my county said, “elect person ‘x,’ so that I can bring development.” ... view

• 13 Oct 2021 in Senate: I beg to reply and request for the deferral of putting of the question to a later date under Standing Order No.61(3). view
