• 30 Jul 2019 in Senate: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, it is also important that there be mandatory statistics taking in this proposed amendment by Sen. (Dr.) Ali. It is important that we understand the magnitude of this onslaught, the extent it has ravaged our people or the spread so that, from a planning perspective, we can allocate sufficient resources to deal with it. I hear colleagues talking about declaring it a national disaster. If you declare it a national disaster and do not have statistics as to its prevalence and spread, it would then be very difficult, from a planning stand point, to know how ... view
• 30 Jul 2019 in Senate: this proposed amendment, to have statistics and data. That data should be available so that those who plan and finance know what to prioritise and the extent to which this disease has come. Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, it is painful that it is everywhere. I am sure that even those who have agreed to talk in public about their suffering are just a few in this House. There are many of us in this House who suffer in silence because we do not want many people to see how vulnerable we are. We speak to God in private or our ... view
• 25 Jul 2019 in Senate: Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir, for giving me an opportunity to make my remarks on this important matter. There are fables and myths where I come from. If you want to bewitch somebody, you do so through food. These people who vend poisonous food are actually witches. I am glad we come from counties and communities that do not agree to being bewitched particularly through food. In my community, we deal with witches by exterminating them. We actually lynch them. view
• 25 Jul 2019 in Senate: I ask the Committee that will be tasked with the responsibility of looking at this matter to ensure that the recommendations they make include extermination of these witches. This is because these witches who give us poisoned food kill us slowly. When you are being killed slowly, you suffer the cost of hospital--- view
• 25 Jul 2019 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I sympathise with my neighbour. In Homa Bay County, they have an association of witches. view

• 25 Jul 2019 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, in my community, there is no distinction between night runners and witches. In fact, night runners are night witches. I sympathise with my colleague who is defending witches. However, I am more concerned with the witches who poison people through food. view
• 25 Jul 2019 in Senate: Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir. I am not advocating for extrajudicial killing, but I want the Committee concerned to know that these people are killing Kenyans. I want them to come up with recommendations that will legally exterminate these people so as to prevent them from poisoning Kenyans for the sake of making profit. This Statement is not just about poisoning Kenyans, but it is also affecting tourism. People who visit Kenya to see its beauty and splendour are now alarmed that they will eat poisoned food. Our visitors will reduce and if they are to come, they will probably ... view
• 25 Jul 2019 in Senate: Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir. Allow me to add my voice to what my neighbour, Sen. M. Kajwang’, has said. On behalf of the people of Migori County and on my own behalf, I want to welcome the students from Arunda Primary School, Homa Bay County. They are my neighbours. I regularly visit Homa Bay County. They should make the best out of their visit. Sen. Dullo is my sister and we pursued our Masters degree at the same time. She has brought a wonderful Statement to this House. Most governors and county governments lament about timely flow of cash. ... view
