    "content": "Madam Temporary Speaker, I agree with Clause 29. In some estates in Nairobi City County, you will rent a residential house and before you know it, it is a club where people club or pray. I do not mean that prayers are bad. However, you were living in a residential home but before you know it, there is kesha or a club. This happened a lot especially during the COVID-19 pandemic. I agree on the termination for illegal reasons. Madam Temporary Speaker, there are estates where even drug and human trafficking is happening. It is important to have these powers for termination notice. The other important thing is damage to property. Sometimes you rent your property and when you go for a routine check, you find the toilet and plants have been destroyed. There is the right to possession by the tenant. The issue of criminal elements, be it drug trafficking or using residential areas as bars is uncomfortable. Those powers are very important and especially when they are legal. The fifth point is on re-assigning and subletting. The biggest victim of such incidences is normally the former Municipal or county government houses. You find a grandson living in the same house where his father and grandfather lived. This is happening in cities and towns like Nairobi and Eldoret, in what used to be town council or municipal council houses. You will be amazed to find five generations of one family living in a public house. Madam Temporary Speaker, there should be a law to guide that. Some people have even turned these public houses into their homes. This also includes the Kenya Railways houses."
