    "content": "Thank you, Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir. Let me also support this Motion. As a Member of Parliament for Nairobi, I am happy to say that Nairobi is now not the Nairobi that it used to be some years back. Many hon. Members have talked about street lights and toilets, but some houses in our City that were built at Independence time have not been repaired. These are like \"dead\" houses, yet the City Council collects money from them every day. So, I am asking the Minister to look into that matter because it is very important. As you can see, the Minister is very courageous and is doing his work well. However, as far as Nairobians are concerned, the Minister should work even harder on housing issues. Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, with regard to land grabbing, it is a shame that some people are still grabbing land here in Nairobi. If allowed, I will be ready to name hon. Members and Ministers who have grabbed land in Nairobi. I will not do that here in this House, but I will name them out there. Right now I have with me a document which shows that an influential Minister has grabbed land here in Nairobi. They want to sell that land to other people and--- I do not know what the President will do about these leaders. It is a shame to realise that hon. Members and councillors are grabbing land for their own benefit. The document is here and I am going to lay it on the Table of the House."
