    "content": "to those countries. Why should we allow this whereas we can improve the investment environment in this country? We are denying our people job opportunities. Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, if you wanted to address the issue of university expansion in this country, there is no land unless you thought of creating a university in the air which is not possible. The land commission must come into place so that expansion of universities and other institutions of higher learning will have the necessary space. It is, therefore, the responsibility of the Government to continue to address this issue. Land registries in this nation must be decentralized. I realize that the greater Kiambu District is being served by one lands registry at Kiambu. This must be decentralized, vehicles made available and fuel for use provided. Regarding land restitution, this is an animal that should be considered critically. It is causing fear in our people. When I talked with some of my constituents, some kind of revenge could develop if we approved this bit. I think that people need to understand clearly that this is a legal mechanism that we are looking for to try and address some of the historic unfairness we have seen in this nation. Therefore, it is prudent that we approve the formation of the Land Restitution Commission which will address some of these issues. The people to be appointed to that Commission should be people of high caliber, people who represent all the regions and not people who represent a certain region or two regions which feel that they have been affected for the last 50 years. The National Land Commission which will address the land issue in this nation should not instill fear in the people. It should be a Commission that will create unity and cohesion in this nation."
