"content": "Hon. Speaker, the land in question is well known to me. I know Kitale very well; it borders my constituency. I am shocked that what is being bought is an old building which stands on about three acres of land; as you know land is not scarce in Trans Nzoia. I am wondering why the county government of Trans Nzoia went ahead to spend such a colossal amount of money to purchase that land. I want to take this opportunity to urge the Departmental Committee on Finance, Planning and Trade to carry out valuation through a Government valuer to establish whether that particular piece of land is worth such a colossal sum of money. This will inform the Senate to ensure that, at least, before any purchase of land, there is law to the effect that no land will be purchased unless due diligence is undertaken."
