    "content": "the land should determine what they want to do with the land. The Bill is trying to address that aspect. On unregistered land within any given county, the Bill provides that such land should be held in trust by the particular county government. The Government or the county government should not register land into any use without the consent of the people who will eventually own the land. In the past, it was said that what belongs to a person is a depth of six inches of the land one ploughs, but what is beneath belongs to the Government. That is an old adage and it is archaic. Presently, we have oil in Turkana County and minerals in Ukambani. As the Leader of the Minority Party said, perhaps some foreigners, backed by the Government, are evicting people to acquire their land for mining. The people whose land has been taken work in the same mines and are paid peanuts."
