"content": "Mr. Speaker, Sir, we must find a way of protecting community, private and public land as envisaged and provided for by the law. I hope Sen. Olekina together with the Kajiado County Government will ensure that people--- If you go to the Land Registry, you will realise that who have been most disadvantaged by issues of land are the people from Kajiado and Narok counties, and the poor. As a House of reason, we need to come up with proper legislative and policy directions on how we can ensure land is not only a source of production but also pride and privilege to the people who genuinely own it. There is so much “grabiosis” of land in this country, and it should stop. Let us come up with ways and means of dealing with that. I am happy that the Cabinet Secretary (CS), hon. Farida Karoney, is doing all she can. We need to give the implementers an opportunity to do their work using legislative proposals and regulations that will assist them to ensure they ward off attacks by the land cartels, brokers and other people who grab community, private and public lands. Finally, Mr. Speaker, Sir, the Government must ensure that the law is followed in case of compulsory acquisition. We have seen Government officers compulsorily acquiring land without following the law. The electronic version of the Senate Hansard Report is for information purposesonly. A certified version of this Report can be obtained from the Hansard Editor, Senate."
