• 8 Nov 2022 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
• 8 Nov 2022 in Senate: Instead of looking at this critically in order to come up with a lasting solution, the Government wants to bury its head in the sand by pretending that it did not see this coming. Next, you will hear a bailout being proposed. The bailout will go into a pit that does not seem to have an end. Who is listening to the financial concerns that the pilots are raising on a serious note, instead of just dismissing them and continuing to act like it is business as usual? This is East Africa’s biggest economy and this is an airline we ... view
• 8 Nov 2022 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, as a Member of the Committee on Roads, Transportation and Housing, I would like the Committee to invite the management of KQ and the Cabinet Secretary for Roads, Transport and Public Works, to enable us have an insight as to what he has done in order to bring a speedy end to this particular strike. view
• 8 Nov 2022 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I beg that you reserve my comments for the next Order. That is why I had placed my request. view

One of the easiest example is a matter that is live before the Senate Committee on Health. view
• 8 Nov 2022 in Senate: Imagine a young father who takes his wife for delivery at a county hospital like Mama Lucy Kibaki Hospital - which is a matter that we are looking into right now - and he is blessed with two bouncing babies, but then the mother dies under very painful and traumatising circumstances. view
• 8 Nov 2022 in Senate: I honestly believe the young man called Robert, who was the husband to Maureen Anyango who died at Mama Lucy Kibaki Hospital, is in deep depression. He appeared before the Standing Committee on Health and I was there. He is a young man whose heart is broken. I would not wish any person to go through what he has gone. view
