    "content": " Thank you for giving me this opportunity to air my voice in supporting this Report. First of all, I would like to highlight the patriotic duty of every Kenyan. But it is very difficult for anybody to claim to be patriotic when they do not own any part of this country. This then brings me to the issue of land ownership. The only way to own land legally is through a title deed. In the spirit of liberalising land, we need to conduct massive land adjudication so that every Kenyan can have a title deed to show ownership of land. As we speak, we have much community land out there which is called trust land. This land is Government owned and is basically ancestral land. I have no right to land owned by my great grandfather until I have a title deed to show ownership of the same land. I know the Government, through its machinery, can introduce in the House, and in the wisdom of the House, create a special fund to fast-track land adjudication so that every Kenyan can have a title deed in the next one year in the spirit of liberalisation of land."
