    "content": "He used to teach me conveyancing in the university. In his opening remarks on this Book, he says that land is an emotive issue and it defines many issues in the African set-up. Land laws are many. They are like a catalogue. There is the Land Registration Act, the Land Act and the Registration of Titles Act and some of them have been amended. The whole issue was given with the onset of the Constitution, of the land and environment at Chapter Five, which defined land into three classifications; community land, public land and the private land which some of us own. Mr. Speaker, Sir, there has been a problem in this country since 1963. Land continues to be a source of conflict here in Kenya. When you go to the Niger Delta in Nigeria and some parts of the Coastal region, the South Rift and the North Rift, land historical injustices are still there. The conflicts we sometimes see in Kerio Valley, Chemolingot and many parts of the country has been of land. I, therefore, think that anything that will be done to alleviate the conflict of land in the Republic of Kenya is welcome. The disease that has been rampart in this country from 1963 is what we call land"
