• 3 Jun 2021 in Senate: As the Senate, one of the most important things that we must handle is to elevate our counties. view
• 3 Jun 2021 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, can I be protected? view
• 3 Jun 2021 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, thank you, for your protection. As a Senate, it must be a big responsibility for us to elevate some of these county headquarters to city status. The process of elevating any town to a city status is not something that takes one day. It is a process. Giving a charter is one thing and achieving full status of a city is a long process. view
• 3 Jun 2021 in Senate: I can give an example of Kisumu City, which was elevated several years ago to city status. Up to now, we have not got the actual Charter. It is a process. Starting today or this yea does not mean that it automatically becomes a city. view
• 3 Jun 2021 in Senate: It should be our responsibility and concern to make sure that we start this process of elevating Nakuru County to city status because it is a process that we must start and continue. It is like the growth of a newborn. It does not take one day to grow. It is a long process from childhood to adulthood. The same applies here. view
• 3 Jun 2021 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, we had the opportunity to visit Nakuru County on several occasions. Our recommendations are very clear that Nakuru County has met the requirements of the Act that allows it to be elevated to city status. Growing up, as has already been mentioned by Sen. Wetangula, Nakuru had a railway station. Traveling from Kisumu to Nairobi City through Nakuru, it was such a big pride reaching Nakuru. It was because of the lighting and cleanliness of the Railway Station. view
• 3 Jun 2021 in Senate: As some Members have already mentioned, it should be upon the Nakuru county government to ensure they return the lost glory of the county in terms of cleanliness and general development. view
• 3 Jun 2021 in Senate: 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
• 3 Jun 2021 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, Nakuru County also stands out as an agricultural area. Being an agricultural town, makes it more deserving for it to be elevated to city status. view
• 3 Jun 2021 in Senate: We visited a Level 5 hospital in Nakuru, which not only cares for the residents of Nakuru County. The hospital acts as a referral hospital to several other counties within Nakuru region. Upscaling of a town elates the citizens for the fact that they belong to a city. For example, Kisumu, Nairobi or Mombasa Cities. Elevating Nakuru, which is in the central part of this country is very timely. The elevation will help in increasing the revenue production and collection, thus enable Nakuru to go very far much faster. view
