    "content": "On a point of order, Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir. I would like to seek a Ministerial Statement from the Ministry of Lands and the Ministry of Foreign Affairs. I wish to request Ministerial Statement from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and the Ministry of Lands in respect of a parcel of land LR No.1870/4/71 granted to Sheikh Shabir Alahmed Aljabir Alkaba, the President and the ruler of the State of Kuwait. The Ruler of Kuwait acquired this property in 2002, but shockingly recently this land was fraudulently transferred to a third party by the name Koibarak Trading Company and subsequently transferred to another company called Miniskul Investment Company. In their Ministerial Statements, I would like the two Ministers to say first of all who are the directors of Koibarak Trading Company, and Miniskul Investment Company. Secondly, I would like the two Ministers to say how the land was clandestinely transferred; this is not something of my making since there is a letter from the Permanent Secretary, Ministry of Lands, addressed to the Director of the CID. So, what I am saying is that, indeed, even the Ministry accepts that this land was clandestinely transferred to a third party without the knowledge of the true owner, who is the ruler of Kuwait. I would like them to say how this land was transferred and the extent of complicity in the Ministry of Lands, taking into account the Syokimau incident where Kenyans were conned; right now investors are still being conned. They should explain how safe our title are. Two, I would like the Ministries involved to also give the steps they have taken to revert the ownership to His Excellency the ruler of Kuwait. Three, I would like to know how this fraudulent activity will affect Kenya as an investment and diplomatic hub, and, indeed, its impact on the cordial bilateral relationship between the state of Kuwait and Kenya."
