    "content": "Our Constitution requires transparency. When you are dealing with public property, all it takes is for KFS to tell us these are the plans for this particular forest, engage the stakeholders and the public; let us have NEMA on board so that we are all clear that there is a project that is happening and this is how it is going to benefit us, especially when it comes to conservation of a forest and not this issue of them waiting for social media outreach, then they come and tell us, “This thing is above board”. We need to call out the Kenya Forest Service. Lastly, on the Statement that has been brought by my sister, Sen. Karen Nyamu, when the current Governor of the Nairobi, Hon. Sakaja, was running for the seat, he promised a city of dignity and order. I will leave it to the public to judge his performance so far, whether there is dignity and there is order in this City. My office is across from his at the KICC. Sometimes even leaving KICC is difficult because there are always hawkers protesting outside his office every day. The inhumane manner in which these “Kanjos” continue to handle the people, we have to call him out because he is the one who made a specific promise. It is as if these City Council Askaris are incorrigible, that even when he promised us that he is going to take them for training about--- What training do you need to be humane when you are doing your job? Just recently, the PWDs who also do their business on the streets in Nairobi, were kicked out, and you know that these are people who need to be handled with care. Every single day you wake up, there is a case of these “Kanjos” mishandling Kenyans and the people of Nairobi. So, when the Governor appears before this Committee, let him answer to the people of Nairobi City County what is going on with this force. I thank you."
