"content": "If this problem continues, it will become impossible to attract investors. They are running away to neighbouring countries because they have an assurance of a determined figure of money that can be paid to citizens of property owners for purposes of development. You will see what the law says when I start referring to the specific provisions. You will realise that in some parts of this country, as a result of a project being initiated in a particular area, suddenly the property owners will start asking for ridiculous amounts of money for compensation. I know that because we are dealing with many of those projects in Elgeyo- Marakwet County. One of them is an electricity generation project that is supposed to be done on Arror and Kimwarer dams. Of course, one of the challenges is that our people demand to be compensated. However, it must not be ridiculous amounts of money. It must be compensation that is worth the property that is situated in that area. People are even asking for up to a share of the profits that will come from the project itself, not as compensation but even over and above."
