    "content": "The other clause that is very important is Clause 119 which talks of the local content. The communities need capacity building. This means value addition to the local and national economic investments. They should be given tenders, contracts and jobs. All these are under the local content, including the revenue sharing formula. Clauses 100 to 108 streamline land issues for oil operations. However, the pending and emotive land Bills that are yet to be discussed will have great implications on this Bill. That is because of the land that has to be given out by the National Lands Commission (NLC). I, however, have reservations on this Bill, particularly on the powers given to the Cabinet Secretary vis-à-vis the powers of the community and that of the county governments. The CS has been given immense powers in this Bill. I hope there will be amendments that will come to ensure that the communities also have powers in the Bill. With those few remarks, I beg to support."
