• 3 Jul 2013 in Senate: Madam Temporary Speaker, I rise to support this Motion. I really like the comments made by Sen. Lesuuda before she left that if we are not agents for peace, we cannot have security. In Africa, we like pretending and avoiding speaking, as it is.

Noting that the number in the House is not adequate and given that this is a county- related Motion, I rise under Standing Order 51(3) to seek your indulgence that when the Motion comes to an end, you name another day when we can actually vote for it. view
• 2 Jul 2013 in Senate: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I join my colleagues in congratulating Mzee Machage for introducing this very important Motion. Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I would like to go further and ask the Government not just to declare this drug issue a national disaster, but to take very drastic actions to stop the problem of drug abuse and illicit brews in this country.
