• 15 Oct 2019 in Senate: I cannot not forget Ms. Brigid Kosgey, who also made us proud just hours after Kipchoge made history. The young lady broke the record after 16 years. We need to recognize and acknowledge our athletes because they made a lot of sacrifice and denied themselves so many things in order for us to enjoy their success as Kenyans. view
• 15 Oct 2019 in Senate: Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, we also need to see how best we can recognize other Kenyans who have made history in their lives. I know of a young Kenyan from Marsabit County, who is well known to me, who was feted as the most outstanding teacher in Saudi Arabia just two days ago. Kenyans are not talking about him, but I am proud of 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, Senate. view
• 15 Oct 2019 in Senate: him because he comes from my village and county. He is one of the young people who have said no to anything that brings them down. view
• 15 Oct 2019 in Senate: It is a high time for us to respect the people who have sacrificed their time, talents and made this country proud. We need to invest in sports, so that Kenya can even nurture other countries. We can come up with an international sports centre or athletes centre that will bring together all our great performers and request them to train other athletes from the entire world. They keep talking about us and many of them would want to enjoy our resources. Therefore, we can invest with an aim of bringing other athletes into this country for training and nurturing ... view
• 15 Oct 2019 in Senate: I support this Motion and say that we would want to see the young people who have made us proud being recognized, nurtured, supported and protected. As most of us celebrate their success and see how best we can support them, there are others also who are thinking of how they can exploit and get some few coins from them. We need to protect and be proud of them. We need to see how they can pass the skills and nurture those who are looking to be great men and women in future. view
• 15 Oct 2019 in Senate: Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, in our country, one of the challenges we are faced with is that there are many young people who are not employed. We can encourage our young people that it is through nurturing that people like Eliud Kipchoge are who they are today. We need to start athletics training centres in every county, where young people can be trained and nurtured. I believe that we have people who are talented in sports and athletics. They can be nurtured and the entire country can enjoy. view
• 15 Oct 2019 in Senate: We are proud of the young people who have made us proud and also thank person who came up with this Motion. Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, I support the Motion. view
• 9 Oct 2019 in Senate: Madam Temporary Speaker, I thank you for allowing me to add my voice to this Motion on the formation of community forest associations to aid in the management of forest resource within counties. I thank Sen. Kasanga for coming up with this Motion which is not only helpful to us, but the entire nation. view
• 9 Oct 2019 in Senate: Our country, Kenya, has not been taking care of the resources that God gave us. Through the forest associations, we can prevent floods, drought and soil erosion. Reports from my county today indicate that we have lost so many animals as a result of floods. We had complained of drought, but we have now lost almost all our animals as a result of the floods. We have not taken good care of our resources especially forests. view
• 9 Oct 2019 in Senate: Madam Temporary Speaker, I beg to support this Motion because a lot of deforestation has taken place such as timber extraction and illegal logging. I believe that if the counties take up the responsibility of planting trees, we can introduce tree planting programmes in our schools and declare a day where we can plant trees and see how we can protect the existing trees in our forests. If we do that, we can recover the forest cover that we have lost. We have lost our history because in the past, we would get wild fruits from the forests that were ... view
