    "content": "Thank you, Mr. Speaker Sir. I seek the Chairman’s indulgence to ride on that statement as requested by Sen. Kasanga with respect to National Housing Cooperation (NHC), which has been a player in matters of low cost housing. As we know, part of the Governments big four agenda is universal housing. Can the Chairman also seek the policy that NHC employs when it deals with the tenants, many of who were previously in slums and such informal settlements? Only recently, we heard of more than 160 families being evicted from the NHC houses in Majengo Estate, Nairobi only for the NHC to hold a forum the next day, sensitizing Kiambiu slum owners on how they will build houses for them. So, now that we have focused on the Big four at this time, can we get the policy on how they are dealing with the low income earners who they are charging more than Kshs11,000 to stay in those houses, yet we want to achieve universal housing for them?"
