Sen. Dullo Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I wanted to ask on Persons with Disabilities (PwDs) . I do not know---

Sen. Dullo Okay. Thank you, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, for the opportunity and the Cabinet Secretary for your presentation. Now, there are so many challenges on the ground especially for PwDs at an early stage. At the Early Childhood Education (ECD) level, we do not have a structured way of...

Sen. Dullo Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir. I wish to support this Petition. It looks like this is an extraordinary Petition. Ordinarily, you do not expect the community to fight with the church. As other Senators have said, people normally ran to church for solutions. This is unfortunate. The community...

Sen. Dullo Did you say I am smiling or it is the Cabinet Secretary smiling? You must be having sharp eyes to see me from where you are.

Sen. Dullo Yes, I am happy because you know all that. The Senate Majority Leader has interrupted my response to you. So, let that pass. Let us get the response from the Cabinet Secretary. The Cabinet Secretary for Water, Sanitation and Irrigation (Hon. Alice Wahome) : Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir,...

Sen. Dullo Mr. Speaker, Sir, I have some information to give. First, there was a reason why the President and Members of Parliament (MPs) felt that Cabinet Secretaries should appear before this House to answer certain Questions that actually affect Kenyans. It is disrespectful of them to fail to appear...

Sen. Dullo What is your point of order Sen. Sifuna? June 26, 2023 SENATE DEBATES 36 Sen. Dullo Mr. Speaker, Sir, on misleading the public; all politicians mislead the public or say information that is not truthful.

What is your point of order Sen. Sifuna?

Mr. Speaker, Sir, on statements of fact, I do not know what evidence Sen. Dullo has that, in fact, all politicians mislead the public. I want to be shown the statistics because it is not fair to blanket condemn everyone, including myself, who is also a politician. I would want...

Sen. Dullo, you cannot make a blanket condemnation on a whole class, the politicians. Maybe you know a few, but it cannot be all of them. Sen. Dullo Mr. Speaker, Sir, let me rephrase it. Majority of politicians give wrong information to the public and nobody has ever been prosecuted...

Sen. Dullo Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir. Kenya has become a dumping ground as far as commodities are concerned. Of concern to me is a product like rice, which Kenya is actually producing and produces other commodities too. One time I walked into our market and bought onions from Ethiopia....

Sen. Dullo I am asking the question; I am just laying my foundation as far as the question is concerned. My question is, how are you ensuring that the standard on the ground is kept as far as livestock production is concerned? There are abattoirs that are built in many...

Sen. Dullo On a point of order!

Sen. Dullo Mr. Speaker, Sir, is it in order for this House and the SBC to allow the Senate Majority Leader to commit an illegality on the Floor of this House? I am saying this is because we are elected Members of this House as Jubilee. For the last three...

Sen. Dullo Mr. Speaker, Sir, we wrote to you some time back complaining of the same. The Constitution is clear in Article 1 (2) , that we can be representing our people in this House through those committees. When we get de-whipped from committees and are left out of those...

Sen. Dullo Mr. Speaker, Sir, when I was raising my point of order, Sen. Sifuna was not listening. However, I rose on Standing Order Nos.197 and 198, where we are left out as Jubilee in that Select Committee. I thank you.
