    "content": "Those are people who deserve it. Instead of recognising people who do not merit the medals, let us give this civil servant for standing his ground even against the Majority Leader of the Senate, who went there to threaten him. He may be threatened by the Majority Leader in the Senate, Hon. Kipchumba Murkomen, but he has the support of the Minority Leader in the National Assembly in the name of John Mbadi. That civil servant is a perfect civil servant. We should emulate him. If we do that, this country will change. There is something that the Leader of the Majority Party said, which I want to agree with. We hear that the land was sold to the people who are being evicted from the Mau. Who is this who sold land to them? These people also need to be punished. They should not go scot-free. They cheated and misled people that there was land to be sold in the Mau Forest. Those people must also be punished however big they are. In this country, there are people who think that they will get away with impunity forever. Because we have a new dawn, there is a new fresh air, we need to take advantage of this fresh air and deal with lords of impunity once and for all. There are people who do not want to see any open space anywhere. They want to grab those spaces. Those are the people who went to Mombasa to take the Kibarani land. They are the same people who grabbed land all over Nairobi. You will find the same names. In fact, they are not more than five Kenyans. They grab land in Nairobi and move to the Coast to grab more land. You find their names in the Mau Forest. These people must be dealt with. Who are they that this country cannot deal with them? Even if it is John Mbadi, I should be held accountable. Let me have as much land as I want, but I should acquire it with my own money. Secondly, it should be land that is available for habitation. I can see my time is up and I do not want to offend the Standing Orders of this House. I support this Report fully."
