Thank you very much, Hon. Deputy Speaker. I rise to support this Bill. I used to bet some time back. I want to say that it is sickening when you are waiting to receive the money. Too many people have suffered from stress. Others have borrowed without refunding because they...

Ahsante, Mhe. Spika wa Muda. Ninaposimama kuongea kuhusu utamaduni, nimefurahia sana kwa sababu leo ndio mara yangu ya kwanza kuongea Kiswahili Bungeni. Inaleta shangwe sana kwamba Kiswahili kule nje… Kuna siku nilikuwa nimesafiri Marekani na nikagundua kwamba Wazungu wanapenda Kiswahili. Mkiingia Marekani wanasema, ‘karibuni’ na ‘asanteni’. Hata kama hawaongei jinsi...

On a point of order.

Thank you, Hon. Temporary Speaker. I am a journalist by profession. I went to school. While we can differ on opinions, it is not right to call others illiterate. All of us have different ways of airing our opinions, but our party leader… (Laughter)

Sorry. I did the best at Egesa FM, and that is why my community believed in me and elected me as their County Woman Representative. What is your point of order? He should withdraw the word 'illiterate'. No one is illiterate; our old women in the village did not go...

Thank you, Hon. Temporary Speaker. This is such a good moment when we are talking about what is on the ground and how the economy is doing. Looking back at Mwai Kibaki’s time, he left office and Kenyans were very excited that the economy had improved. When a county has...

During the President’s Speech, I noted there were some things which were not coming out clearly, especially on the...

On point of order. What is your point of order, Hon. Donya? Hon. Deputy Speaker, he is saying that students converge at the sub-county level to collect the sanitary pads. That is a lie. He is saying that they are given seven packets of pads per year. How many months...

Yes.

Thank you, Hon. Deputy Speaker. I have listened to the response and what he is saying is not what is on the ground. They are two different things. They are saying that girls are collecting sanitary pads from the county. I come from Kisii County and I go there twice...

Can you respect women? I am on the Floor and I want to defend the rights of our girls. Please! (Applause)(Applause)

Thank you, Hon. Temporary Speaker. I support this Bill because we must not think about joking with lives at any time. Medicine is key. Hon. Osoro is my Member of Parliament for South Mugirango, and I am the County Women Representative for Kisii. As he spoke, I remembered as you...

Thank you, Hon. Speaker, pursuant to the provisions of Standing Order 43 (1) , I wish to make a General Statement regarding the state of preparedness and response to the potential devastating effects of the impending El Nino rains in the country. Hon. Speaker, weather forecasts have predicted that the...

On a point of order, Hon. Temporary Speaker.

Hon. Temporary Speaker, because this issue of sugar is very dear to us, can we lower the minutes to three so that you can give a chance to many Members? You know well that you can explain something in one minute, and we get the point. Please, mambo ni matatu....

Thank you very much, Hon. Temporary Speaker. I have to be quick. Basic education is key to our children. Even as we support this Motion on increasing resources, I can be quoted that back home in Kisii County, pupils in

Thank you, Hon. Temporary Speaker. As you can hear, my voice is hoarse because we want justice for our girls. Girls are lured with love messages like ‘I love you’. Those are messages from boys because they know if they tell the girls that, the next question they ask is:...

On a point of order. What is your point of order, Madam Dorice Donya? Hon. Deputy Speaker, I seek your indulgence. The Cabinet Secretary for Education was in this House on 3rd May 2023 and we asked him a question about the issuance of sanitary pads to our school-going girls…...

Hon. Deputy Speaker, I am very grateful. The Cabinet Secretary told us that he had directed the Ministry of Public Service, Gender and Affirmative Action and other stakeholders involved to deal with this issue once and for all. Five months down the line, our children have no sanitary pads. I...

When I asked the Cabinet Secretary for Education the question, he said that he would engage with the Ministry of Public Service, Gender and Affirmative Action. Okay. The Statement can be marked to the Departmental Committees on Education and Social Protection. Thank you, Hon. Deputy Speaker.
