    "content": "Thank you, Madam Temporary Speaker for also giving me this chance to add my voice on this issue on irregular eviction of people by the KRC. I was shocked some few months ago when I was coming through Nakuru route to find out that people were doing a lot of demonstrations. When I asked I was told that the KRC had demolished most of the businesses along their land. In fact, I later on asked the leadership from that region and they explained to me clearly that the houses of those people were demolished without notice. A lot of destruction took place. The economic empowerment was totally destroyed. I could remember some very beautiful hotels and petrol stations that were on that land. Madam Temporary Speaker, I would have wished this corporation had given notice to these people. Currently, Kenya is going through a lot of challenges because of COVID-19 pandemic and more so unemployment among our youths. Most of the kiosks and business centres that were destroyed belonged to very learned Kenyans who were not employed. Most of their properties were sold to educate them. This destruction is unwelcome. It is so bad that people are going through serious problems of unemployment and the COVID-19 pandemic and the Government is destroying their livelihoods. Currently, we have a very inhumane Government which consists of very inhumane beings who have no feelings."
