    "content": "I am also happy about the function of the revenue that is being set up. According to this Bill, the Commission of Revenue Allocation (CRA) is supposed to prepare the agreements in areas where resources have been found. It is, therefore, expected that CRA will ensure that the locals are not exploited. Local people have been exploited for so long. There are cases where the land owners have been displaced and the investors have arrogated themselves the resources. We also have cases where the locals have been sold at a very low price. The CRA will also review the benefit of the natural resources to the community. Some communities are never aware of the value of their natural resources. Some of them are bought at a very low price because of poverty. We have to protect the birthright of Kenyans and that is what this Bill seeks to do. This Bill will safeguard the birthright of Kenyans for posterity purposes."
