    "content": " Thank you, Hon. Temporary Speaker, for giving me a chance to support the Bill brought by Hon. Baya. I support it because land matters affect our country. I want to give a good example of Trans Nzoia County. There is a piece of land belonging to Kenya Prisons Service that was allocated to some individuals in Trans Nzoia County. These people have suffered. I feel that we will be doing injustice to a number of people in Kenya if we put time limit to the work of the NLC. We should remove the time limit and give them time and powers to execute their duties as mandated so that we deal with land injustices in Kenya. People have suffered because it takes a number of years before their cases are heard. I do not know whether this has been indicated here. I feel that the NLC could be given powers to fast track the reviews they are doing for the people affected. People’s properties are being demolished yet they have spent a lot of money to construct them. These people have been allocated these lands and they have been there for a very long time. After some time, you come to realise that these people are being evacuated and displaced from those places. Nobody cares about them. There is no compensation. That is why I support the idea that the NLC should be given mandate to manage public land and help members of the public get justice. I also support because I realised that people have been given original title deeds acquired from the Ministry of Lands, with signatures of land registrars.
