"content": "Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, we have put in a proposal there. As I have said before, it is very difficult to legislate empathy, common sense, good behaviour and humanity. If you are a landlord, this is not the time to evict your tenant. Enter into an agreement with your tenant. That provision is not just to cushion the tenant but also the landlord. I have spoken to many who are asking that we have said tenants should not pay. No, that is not what we said. The media sensationalised this issue. We are not saying that tenants should not pay, but we are urging them to get into an agreement. For example, your tenant may be able to pay a certain portion for now. If they are paying Kshs20, 000 in rent, you can agree they pay Kshs10,000 and then Kshs15,000 or something extra to recover it. It is better than having no tenant at all."
