    "content": "Rebellion because our people were being moved from their ancestral land unlawfully. You even have a Committee Chair who is from that area and whose people are also affected. He fears authority. Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, let me tell you that we fear Baba, but we reason with him. On this particular issue, Baba even called me because the British called him. I told him: “ Baba, you love Kenyans. You are the only non-tribal politician I know in Kenya. Let me deal with this issue.” Baba backed off. I told him: “ Baba, do not talk about this. The people of Laikipia are your people. Please, let me get back the land for the suffering people of Laikipia. Let me give the Maasai, Kikuyu and Samburu their land. They do not have limbs and their women have been raped by the British soldiers.” So, we fear Baba . By the way, people who have knelt down to Baba include the current President and his deputy. They fear Baba . Even now he scares them to death. Baba is a great man. He sent me to defend the rights of these people. Article 6(4) of this proposed agreement allows that, if these people shoot anybody in Nanyuki Town, rape a woman or do anything adverse and unlawful in our country, the only thing we can do is to have them tried on our land by the British. The law of this land is supreme."
