"content": " Order, Sen. Murkomen. You are a Member of the Speakers’ Panel. You know that when the Speaker’s feet are up, yours must be down. That is true to any other Senator. The issue of land is very emotive as you have just demonstrated and that is why there are specific provisions. My own understanding and the reading of the statement I wanted read – there was a request from Sen. Mutula Kilonzo Jnr. that the Chair, in responding to the request has brought more information which has made the case even stronger. Just like the Chair was directed, to interrogate further the issue of Chepchoina Settlement Scheme, it is important for the Committee to interrogate, further the issues around Masongaleni Settlement Scheme so that all these issues you are raising can be sorted according to the law. For the name of Sen. Murkomen to be mentioned just like Sen. Khalwale, Sen. Wetangula and Sen. Mutula Kilonzo Jnr. have been mentioned; my own reading is that he was just making reference to what we have done to Masongaleni and Chepchoina Settlement Scheme including many other schemes that Members were raising about. Part of the job of the Committee is to confirm whether the settlement scheme was the one of the Africanisation or if it was the one for the landless. In any case, we have the famous Ndung’u Report. So, there will be work to be done. We have provisions that have been cited by Sen. Khalwale in terms of what the National Land Commission ought to do. So, let us allow the Committee to do its work and give us a comprehensive Report."
