• 8 Sep 2020 in Senate: Madam Temporary Speaker, thank you for allowing me to add my voice in support to this important Statement by Sen. (Dr.) Milgo. This is something that affects many parts of this country. It is unfortunate that when it happens, we lose a lot as a country. Our animals are affected. The resources around there are definitely affected and the air is also polluted. I come from a place that has many national parks. We have the wild animals that give us many opportunities and bring a lot of income. However, when there are fires, wildlife suffers most. What happened in ... view
• 21 Jul 2020 in Senate: Thank you, Madam Temporary Speaker, for allowing me to come in and also add my voice to this very important Statement. The situation in our country concerning COVID-19 is serious. It is unfortunate that as a country, we are not paying a lot of attention while we keep losing many people. I would want to comment on the lifestyle of our young people, whereby they keep on interacting closely. This will cost them their life. I think some measures have to be put in place so that young people can take care of themselves in their homes or at any ... view
• 21 Jul 2020 in Senate: Ministry of Health to do some research and see what is happening in Tanzania and Uganda. If there is anything that they are doing and we are not doing, we can also replicate. It is unfortunate that we keep on losing our people and famous people. Even us as leaders, and as the Senate, should be careful, because we interact a lot--- view

• 7 Jul 2020 in Senate: Thank you, Madam Deputy Speaker, for allowing me to add my voice to this very important Statement, as I also congratulate Sen. Kwamboka for coming up with it. As a nation, we should be thinking of how we can solve this problem. That has become a tradition now. I remember that last year we debated about candidates who got pregnant and were almost giving birth during the exam time. Today, we seem to be blaming the Coronavirus Disease (COVID-19). If our young girls got pregnant in March, they should not be giving birth at this time. As a mother, I ... view
• 7 Jul 2020 in Senate: you may be looking at your daughter as a baby, but another man somewhere is admiring her. Therefore, we should be very careful. We should also limit their movement in and out of the house and premises. Madam Deputy Speaker, we have also given our daughters a lot of freedom, like on social media. They watch a lot of things happening on television, and that should also be controlled by the parents. They have their phones for 24 hours, and we do not know what they interact with through their phones. As parents, we should be responsible and take care ... view
• 7 Jul 2020 in Senate: Thank you, I will. We have a responsibility in the society, especially as women, to stand up for our young girls, give them relevant advice and see how we can be their role models. Thank you. view

• 7 Jul 2020 in Senate: Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, I also take this opportunity to congratulate you. It is good seeing you there because you are a hardworking young and talented Senator. We thank God for giving you that opportunity. Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, the issue of police brutality in our country has been discussed and debated in this august House severally. It is unfortunate that we keep on talking about it and there is no action that is taken. The electronic version of the Senate Hansard Report is for information purposesonly. A certified version of this Report can be obtained from the Hansard Editor, ... view
• 7 Jul 2020 in Senate: I sympathize with the people who lost their lives in Nandi and many others who keep on losing their lives every day. In our counties, many of our people have lost their lives. I do not know when Kenyans will find safety in the hands of police. When you go to the cells, women and young girls are raped there. When you drive on our roads, they are the people who promote corruption. I do not know what we can do in order to stem these people. Maybe, they are going through depression that needs our attention. I think it ... view
