• 19 May 2015 in Senate: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, without taking much time, I share the concerns raised by Sen. Abdirahman. Opinion polls have been used many times to mislead the public. We know that towards the run up to the last general elections, many opinion polls were churned out giving different figures. You would find three different opinion polls giving totally different positions on the same issue. The most important thing if you were to do opinion polling would be to have the right questions. It is important that if you have to rank Senators, governors and Members of the National Assembly, it has ... view

• 19 May 2015 in Senate: Madam Temporary Speaker, I wish to support this Bill. Since the inception of this Senate, this afternoon, we have discussed some of the perception and challenges that this Senate faces partly because we have not had an opportunity to carry out civic education. Senators have not been facilitated to carry out their responsibilities in accordance with Article 96 of the Constitution. Part of the reason is that the Parliamentary Service Commission (PSC) as is currently constituted has not provided the necessary facilitation to this Senate. For a Senator who represents six, 12 or 18 constituencies to be given similar facilitation ... view
• 13 May 2015 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I thank the Senator for Kirinyaga for presenting this Petition.

We hope that in the next one month or so, the Bill should come to this House for First Reading. When you have issues to do with county boundaries, I know that we have disputes in over 30 boundaries involving our counties. The temptation can sometimes be, that we think ... view

• 13 May 2015 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I initially addressed the House as the Vice Chairperson of the Committee. I am now talking as the Senator for Nandi County. Just to wind up, it is important to address the issue of county boundaries so that the people of Kericho County can have Muhoroni Sugar Company. Nandi County should have Chemelil Sugar Company and Prof. Anyang’-Nyong’o’s county should retain Miwani Sugar Factory. Those are the issues we should address so that we have equity across the three counties. A commitment from me and the Members of the Legal Affairs and Human Rights Committee is that ... view
