In supporting the Motion, everybody who uses roads needs knowledge and pupils are not an exception. As they travel between home and school daily, they need to be aware how to use the roads.

Other than emphasising the need for road safety education in our schools, we also need to think about conducting road safety campaigns. The NTSA as the organisation mandated to such campaigns is at the centre. I do not think pupils, especially those in the rural areas, have any idea on how they should use roads. The need for such knowledge becomes critical especially when they move from rural areas to urban areas. In my constituency, I have had to carry many bodies back to the village of youth who have come to Nairobi, but cannot tell which side of the ...

The Motion emphasises the need to implement road safety regulations right from primary schools and re-emphasises the need to make it a component of the curriculum that is examinable.

Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, for giving me this opportunity to contribute to the President’s Address to the Nation. The Speech addressed three fundamental areas that are important to this country.

It also addresses the opportunities that individuals are being offered to serve this nation. In these three areas, there are gaps that ought to have been addressed to make the President’s Address different from the previous address that we had last year. One of our ...

have been literally abandoned. I would have wanted to hear a statement on how much we have been able to rescue over the last one year and how far we will move forward to make sure that some of these things are equitably supported. I would have also wanted to hear a statement on farmers’ confidence in general. The farmers are disillusioned not because they are missing the support they require from government, but because they are being taken round in circles when it comes to addressing some of the issues that are facing them. As much as I support ...

Thank you, Hon. Speaker. I rise to ask Question No.114 of 2019 to the Cabinet Secretary for Agriculture, Livestock, Fisheries and Irrigation: (i) Could the Cabinet Secretary provide existing policy guidelines regarding buying of tea leaves from farmers by tea factories, and in particular by the Mara Tea factory located at the border of Kisii and Narok counties? (ii) What steps is the Ministry taking to ensure that the numerous challenges faced by tea farmers are addressed? Thank you, Hon. Speaker.

Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. I want to take this chance to contribute to this noble Motion that comes at a time when the nation of Kenya has health as one of its four pillars. Therefore, it is an opportunity that we need to seize and see how best we can engage ourselves to make sure that the tenets of health are well captured in the programmes that are going to be implemented. We are talking of diabetes which has been described as a slow killer, but it is now being seen as one of the most serious killers ...
