    "content": "Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairlady. The amendment to the Land Laws (Amendment) Bill goes against the spirit of the Constitution. In this country, we were yearning for land policy reforms. We also wanted decentralisation of powers from the Cabinet Secretary. Those powers were vested in an independent commission namely, the NLC. If we go back to having the Cabinet Secretary or the Executive involved in the issue of land, it will take the country back to the old dispensation. We have had a lot of problems in this country about the land issue for 53 years. The people of Kenya spoke during the promulgation of the new Constitution."
