• 25 Sep 2019 in Senate: other and continue to do that; there is a long way to go. I hope that they can make use of the opportunities within the Senate to grow their work in Migori. I sit in the Executive Committee of the Forum of Parliaments of the ICGLR and those who you have introduced are my colleagues. They belong to a bureau, and I want to congratulate them. I have had an occasion to be with them in one of the meetings and Kenya is a great pillar in that organization as it has been said by my senior colleague there, Sen. ... view
• 24 Sep 2019 in Senate: Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir. Allow me to welcome the Senate Majority Leader back to the House. He should know that he was treated as a VIP because he has an insurance cover; he is the Senate Majority Leader and a Senator. Normally, ordinary people do not get such kind of treatment. I support the Statement by Sen. Halake. The pastoralists now have hope because the matter has reached Parliament. They believe that the matter will be halted until it is heard and determined but is that going to be the case? That will only happen if this House facilitates ... view

We make it so difficult and make it look like you have to wake up very early in the morning and line up for many days to get the passport. The same applies even for people who are in Nairobi, let alone people who have come from ... view
• 19 Sep 2019 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, the Statement will still be considered by committees, so, I do not think answering it now will be very helpful. I just wanted to say that we should demystify the passport and make it a very ordinary document that every citizen can have at their convenience. It is possible to do that at the counties. We just want as many people as possible to have a passport because it is a right under the Constitution. Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir. view
