"content": "This House established the National Land Commission (NLC) which looks at the historical land injustices, but this has not been happening. The Commission is not doing enough, especially in the Coast region. It is high time we extended our catch not only to money lost but even to areas where community land is being lost and given to the wrong people. The other thing the President talked about is the issue of food security. I remember the Government initiated a very wonderful project – the Galana Kulalu Irrigation Project – which borders Kilifi and Tana River counties. However, because of corruption, more resources have been availed to make sure that that project is a success but that is not the case. Money has been lost. Nothing has come out of that project. I urge the relevant authorities to investigate whatever is going on in Galana Kulalu. The other thing that the President addressed is tourism. We know most parts of the Coast region, especially north coast depend on tourism. However, as we speak today, most of those hotels are ghosts. We depend on local tourism. There are no international tourists. The Government needs to do more to make sure that more tourists come to our country as it used to happen before. This will create job opportunities for our youth.
