"content": " Mr. Speaker, Sir, having too much knowledge can also be dangerous. I will invite the Member to go and look at a document known as the National Land Policy which I prepared, placed before the Cabinet and was passed by the National Assembly but the implementation was left to Government. Unfortunately, that National Land Policy came towards the end of the NARC Government. If you would still want to know, we were fought by huge land owners in this country who were against that National Land Policy including people in the Cabinet at that time. I said it on the Floor of the House that it is people in the Government who did not want that National Land Policy. The Mau Mau have never been compensated because all the land which was occupied by the settlers originally belonged to the ‘black’ people who were taken to the Rift Valley and put in Villages. If you go to Nyeri you will find a colonial village there and it looks just like it did in 1963. I think Sen. (Dr.) Kabaka should read a little bit more history and then he will find us."
