How many years are those? I will explain to him how as a young dashing veterinarian in Kenya, when we had old Wazungu’s still farming there, I approached Mr. Hugh Ballard who had bought the farm way back after the First World War and had been farming there. I approached him and bought the land from him. Unfortunately, he has since passed on. Just to share my tribulations, I took 15 years to pay for that land. That way, the hon. Member for Cherengany will understand how many of us got into Trans Nzoia. I would like to make it clear that I do not occupy any forest land nor do I live near any forest. That is why I invite the hon. Member to my house for a cup of tea."}
