• 9 Jun 2020 in Senate: I therefore request the Committee on Labour and Social Welfare to give us a detailed response regarding the plans that are there to mitigate the effects of COVID-19 on the lives of these employees particularly the ones employed in the public owned sugar factories. The ripple effect that we will have if these fellows do not work is disastrous. Sony Sugar Company, for instance, serves Homa Bay, Migori and Narok counties in terms of sugar production. Mumias Sugar Company, on the other hand covers the entire Western region. Therefore, if these fellows are not motivated, the families of farmers who ... view

• 9 Jun 2020 in Senate: and I am excited to second her Bill. I am also happy that the National Assembly also thought about our families in ASALs.

If we continue pretending that Nairobi is the centre of production and that other traditional areas are where production should be carried, then we will miss opportunities as a nation.

• 9 Jun 2020 in Senate: I hope that this Bill will get traction with our colleagues in the Senate and ensure that every part of this nation has opportunity to generate wealth, generate resources and to employ our people and that we do not have barriers and boundaries.

We want those places ... view
• 9 Jun 2020 in Senate: If one goes to the Middle East countries such as Dubai, Saudi Arabia or Egypt, drought is a regular thing but they are able to manage it. In fact, it is so tragic at times that we have to import food from Egypt, a very dry place where we only know of River Nile.
