30 Jul 2019 in Senate:
Mr. Speaker, Sir, I hate to interrupt my Whip; he might de- whip me. However, my Whip and Sen. Olekina said that what we are seeking is very dangerous. Now, I am very concerned about the security of Members including myself. Would I be in order to request Sen. Mutula Kilonzo Jnr. to let us know what kind of danger is lurking about the information that we are seeking so that we can take safety measures?

30 Jul 2019 in Senate:
Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir, for giving me an opportunity to add my voice to the condolences being given to our two great leaders. I buy in totality the positive expressions that have been made in favour of our departed colleagues. I wish to say the following: Mr. Speaker, Sir, Kibra is known for very many things. However, one of the things people never say is that Kibra people are capable of electing good leaders. At this very difficult time and trying time, I condole with the people of Kibra for losing their leader. I also congratulate them for giving ...

Mr. Speaker, Sir, I also congratulate them for giving hon. Okoth to Parliament. Without the votes and steadfastness of the people of Kibra Constituency, most of us would not have interacted with hon. Okoth. I, therefore, applaud the people or Kibra and pray that their strength and wisdom continues as they mourn and bury their leader and as they seek for his replacement. I also take this opportunity to thank the people of Bomet. For a people to think of electing a lady who in our culture is married in another community, defend and stand with her, I think the ...

Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I did not want to interrupt my friend, but had to do it for the sake of our sportsmen. He has said the mursik assists people to break the record. Is he not insinuating that our athletes take substances that enhance performance, hence they can be banned? Is he in order? He is making remarks that can threaten the future of our athletes.

30 Jul 2019 in Senate:
Thank you, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, for giving me an opportunity to make remarks regarding this very important topic. Allow me to congratulate my brother, Sen. (Dr.) Ali, for remembering the sick and also being concerned about the state of our health in this nation. Sen. (Dr.) Ali as was indicated by his teacher, Sen. (Prof.) Ongeri, is a good person. I have served in this Parliament with him and can attest to his goodness. That goodness is manifested in his desire to have legislation that handles cancer. The electronic version of the Senate Hansard Report is for information purposesonly. ...

30 Jul 2019 in Senate:
This piece of legislation is important because we hitherto did not have legislation that had aligned the attention cancer should have with the devolved nature of our governance structure. This proposition that counties get involved as key players in trying to control, prevent and handle the threat of cancer, is one that must be supported. This is because the Constitution, as we made it in 2010, envisaged that health will be carried out in counties, and that resources must be put in counties, so that we attend to it. Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I know that my colleagues and I ...

30 Jul 2019 in Senate:
Cancer as a trouble, has visited our country with its own seat and is seated everywhere. It is seated at the high table, middle table and all those tables. We all must get alarmed because if we do not get alarmed, I am sure that it will exterminate all of us. Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, cancer as a disease will of course kill those it has attacked. More so, it will wipe away all your savings and resources and leave in its wake, both physical pain of loss of a loved one and the pain of losing all the resources ...
