"content": " Madam Temporary Speaker, Sen. Kinyua could be right but he does not have the supporting documents. So, he should wait until the answer is brought. Madam Temporary Speaker, I insisted that there is no urgency in this statement because the hon. Senator, in his own admission, said that it has been like that for 40 years. Therefore, I do not think it is now urgent. Secondly, the hon. Senator said that it is an ADC farm. So, that is a clear admission that there could be some trespass and it is not a question of the pastoralists owning the farm. It is an admission that the farm is owned by the Government and, ordinarily, it should not be occupied by any other person except the Government. Concerning the urgency, this matter is already being addressed because he has talked about people and animals being killed. The question of ownership of land and the neighbouring property might end up being superfluous unless there is a clear reason why we want to discuss privately owned lands here. There must be a link between a crime and the privately owned land. So, there is no urgency in terms of rushing to investigate the ownership of titles or properties around the place because that is not urgent. What cannot wait is the suffering which I have said will be dealt with in a week’s time."
