• 23 Nov 2023 in Senate: Thank you, Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir. I believe that all of us are born with the ability to tell right from wrong. The Statement from Sen. Cherarkey allows me to say that I have absolute faith in every Member of this House. It will take time, but you will come to see the light that what is right is right and what is wrong is wrong. It does not matter who is the victim of police brutality. It is wrong because Kenyans envisaged a service, moving away from a force. What has happened in the past – we do not ... view

• 23 Nov 2023 in Senate: We will condemn every single incident where police abuse their power. By the way, I am not in the habit of laughing at people who used to laugh at me. I will be at ease the day we all join the Minority in saying that we must have a country that works for everyone and respects the rule of law irrespective of who you are. A person being bludgeoned in Nandi by police should have the same rights as the person being bludgeoned in Nyalenda. We then should all come out and condemn it and say, this is not the ... view

• 23 Nov 2023 in Senate: Just one more minute, please. As I was saying, we looked at the data that was presented to us and it does support some of the efforts we see on what causes road accidents--- view

• 22 Nov 2023 in Senate: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, there is a terrible situation unfolding at the Jomo Kenyatta International Airport (JKIA) in Nairobi, where passengers are dropped off almost 100 metres from the terminals in the rain. I would like the CS to explain to me the rationale of dropping passengers all the way, away from the entrances of the terminals in this particular season when it is raining. We have seen mothers carrying their children through the rain. The CS is a travelled man. He has seen what other international airports look like. Why can we not drop passengers at the doors of ... view

• 22 Nov 2023 in Senate: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, just like Sen. (Dr.) Khalwale, I believe with great respect that the Cabinet Secretary (CS) misunderstood the question that I asked and he answered the wrong question. The question I was asking is, if you look at the design of the terminal of Jomo Kenyatta International Airport (JKIA), provision was made for drop off points of passengers coming in, not the ones on the air side. You are talking about passenger boarding bridges. No, that is not what I am asking. Provision was made for drop off points at the terminal entrances, but those accesses were ... view
