Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, one of them is just to agree with Sen. Musila who said that as a society and a people, we need to ask ourselves where the rain started beating us.

• 24 Jul 2014 in Senate: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I rise to seek a Statement from the Chairperson of the Sessional Committee on Devolved Government. The statement relates to the Drought that has caused Starvation that may lead to a humanitarian crisis across counties in the Arid and Semi-Arid Lands (ASALS) parts of Kenya.

(2) State how many ... view
