    "content": "Thank you, Madam Temporary Speaker. In quick succession, I think Sen. Orengo being the former Minister of Lands has more authority than all of us. Just to add on what Sen. Orengo and my colleagues have said, when the Webuye residents of over 30,000 risk being evicted, it is very tragic. I think these are human right issues. In fact, it is not even a local issue. It should be an international issue. This issue of trying to gazette a private land of 30,000 in Webuye or Bungoma is unfortunate. I thank Sen. Wetangula for bringing this issue up. It is important. Sen Wetangula is busy maybe conversing on issues of One Kenya Alliance. Madam Temporary Speaker, what I wanted to tell Sen. Wetangula is that I congratulate him for bringing this issue before the Floor of the House. I thank the people of Webuye and Bungoma County for having faith in the Senate. The last time I was in Bungoma, it was not a good experience. However, I support them 100 per cent. I want to challenge Sen. Wetangula through the Committee on Lands, Environment and Natural Resources. I have faith in Sen. Mwangi. This is a human rights issue. In fact, it should be brought to the attention of African Charter on Human and People's' Rights or Banjul Charter. Madam Temporary Speaker, if we allow this to happen, the issue of Mau will recur. The issue that we are facing in Nandi County, Ng’epikong where forest evictees are now on the roadside because of overzealous Government machineries will recur. If"
