"content": "Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir, for the opportunity to contribute on the two Petitions and I support them. Land is a factor of production. That is why it is at the heart of every Kenyan. It is important to note that the National Land Commission (NLC) was constituted to look into the management of both public and private land. Therefore, it is questionable that public land that was surrendered for public use could revert back to private land. This must be looked into. Mr. Speaker, Sir, while we were in Turkana, it was sad to note that the whole of Turkana County that stretches over 77 kms has only one registrar of land. There is no injustice that is more than the injustice being played on the people of Turkana with regard to the absence of the services of a registrar. This registrar takes care of West Pokot and Turkana counties. We should take note of that and the Government must post another registrar to that area so that people of Turkana are served just as other Kenyans. On the Petition by Sen. Kavindu Muthama, it is worth noting that as early as 1938, all cows in Ukambani were seized by colonialists. I suggest that Ukambani people must not only be compensated for that loss but an evaluation must be done at present cost for their compensation. I thank you."
