    "content": "I therefore suggest that when we sit down at the tail-end of this process we should help Hon. Kositany to make compulsory acquisition of land part of the Bill. A lot of land, more so during the KANU era where I served with him, was carelessly given to party stalwarts. Most of it was land that would end up being used for building of schools or school expansion. Due to the interest of time, I will be in great hurry. This Motion has to do with school-going children. I want to echo what has emerged here; that the NG-CDF is supposed to be augmenting the efforts of parents and the Government in building schools. The challenge is that, as of now, parents think that the NG-CDF is only for building schools, and that is the only job that the fund should do. They do not take into consideration the small budgetary provision that we have. So, I congratulate my good friend, Hon. Caleb Kositany, for bringing this very good Motion in a very good time. It will help us to ensure that land is compulsory acquired for school expansion. More so, public land that was taken by some powerful personalities or by influential people in Government, but which otherwise belongs to schools, must be repossessed."
