    "content": "them. We want even the village administrators to know exactly what is happening and let the public know. When somebody wants to sell land, the family members must be there because that is what the law we passed in the previous Parliament says. You cannot sell property without your family members knowing. I know there are so many cases in Laikipia and other parts of this country concerning that matter. You go to the land offices to do something and you are told, “I am very sorry this is not your land.” You get shocked because you are sure you bought the land and you were even given a real title. It is quite unfair. So we want them to do better. People at the lands office are not supposed to issue any title to other persons when title of land has not reverted. When you want your title deed and you happen to learn that somebody else has the same title you could easily say that the Government is not doing its work. However, it is not Jubilee Government. It is the people who are in those offices. We do not want to be blamed that Jubilee Government is the one grabbing the land. We are not land grabbers. We want to know the truth and we want the people who are given the job by the Government to do their job properly without thinking that they know so-and-so. Even if the land you are buying is clean--- My colleagues from Eldama Ravine said that there is land that was given to squatters but nobody bothered about it. People went there and did other things without the knowledge of the community. It is not the Government doing these things, it is the Government workers."
