• 24 Sep 2013 in Senate: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I would like to congratulate the leadership of Jubilee, led by the President and his team for uniting us. But I would like to see the unity live longer. We should not behave as if all is normal when things happen. We also need to intensify our security and be alert. Thank you, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. view
• 19 Sep 2013 in Senate: Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, the issue of roads is not only unique to Sen. Karaba. This is a problem that affects us and our cars, especially when we are driving on rough roads. I would like to support the Senator from Nyeri that we should find out whether these contractors are still being paid or not. About two years ago, the third President of Kenya, retired President Kibaki told the people of North Rift that the road would be ready within six months. However, we have not seen anything up to now. I think you will bear me witness, Mr. ... view
• 24 Jul 2013 in Senate: Thank you, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, for giving me time to contribute to this very lively Motion moved by our beautiful pastoralist girl, Sen. Lesuuda. Indeed what she has said here is true. Some of us come from those parts of the world where our meat is the best; it is second to none. We have a brand in Baringo called Koriema Goat; and even before you cook it, you have started salivating. So, I invite you to that part of the world. Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, the livestock industry in this country has really not got what it is ... view
• 23 Jul 2013 in Senate: I am proposing, Sen. Kajwang. view
• 16 Jul 2013 in Senate: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I beg to move the following Motion:- THAT, aware that the country cannot solely depend on rain-fed agriculture to attain food security; acknowledging the importance of irrigation-based agriculture in improving food security status; recognizing that our rivers and lakes are the main sources of water for large-scale irrigation; appreciating the efforts by the National Government to put more land in counties within arid and semi-arid areas under crop production; concerned that continued encroachment through human The electronic version of the Senate Hansard Report is for information purposes only.

• 16 Jul 2013 in Senate: Madam Temporary Speaker, I was worried that the House would adjourn without me saying something. I would like to thank the people who have contributed to this Motion. People say that water is life. Indeed, the contributors have said the right things about water and encroachment on water catchment areas. This is a serious issue. It is food for thought. We are playing with fire. I do not know for how long we can sustain the sources of drinking water that we currently have. We are not even sure where the water comes from. Probably, it is not even clean ... view
• 11 Jul 2013 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I beg to give notice of the following Motion to the Department of Environment, Water and Natural Resources:- THAT, aware that the country cannot solely depend on rain-fed agriculture to attain food security; acknowledging the importance of irrigation-based agriculture in improving food security status; recognizing that our rivers and lakes are the main sources of water for large-scale irrigation; appreciating the efforts by the National Government to put more land in counties within arid and semi-arid areas under crop production; concerned that continued encroachment through human settlement along riparian areas leads to pollution of the water bodies ... view
• 9 Jul 2013 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, is it parliamentary language to call her “a young woman,” even if she is representing the youth? I think the proper name should be used in the House. view
• 4 Jul 2013 in Senate: On a point of order, Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir. We have observed one minute of silence for our late brother. As a KANU nominee, I think that it is befitting really to say that hon. Njiru did a lot for this country. Therefore, we cannot just observe one minute of silence and leave it at that. Maybe most of us did not know that he had passed on. I, therefore, think that it is important that we, at least, allow Members to convey their condolences, since we have observed a minute of silence. Personally, I knew Mr. Njiru as a ... view
• 4 Jul 2013 in Senate: Madam Temporary Speaker, thank you for at least seeing me today. I want to congratulate my neighbour, a very close friend, from Pokot County which borders our County of Trans Nzoia. So, we are actually like brothers and sisters. When we saw this project being constructed we were very excited as neighbours and we thought heaven is near and our people will benefit. To our surprise and dismay, it has come to give us destruction. When he talks about mosquitoes invading us, that is true. They have actually come to my bedroom because Turkwel Gorge is very close. What The ... view
