• 1 Mar 2016 in National Assembly: matter is very dear in my heart. One of the reasons why I am a Member of Parliament is that there is a certain constituency and boundary. There is also the culture of ferrying voters from one constituency to another. I saw it last night on television. People within a constituency will either love or hate you. You do not need to ferry people from Nairobi or Mombasa. The people in your constituency must vote for you. If they are Luhya, they will vote for you. If they happen to be Somali, you just need to talk their language, and ... view
• 1 Mar 2016 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Speaker for giving me the opportunity to speak to this very important Bill. This constitutional Bill is historic in its kind because, for the first time, it is going to bring about proper legislation on land use within the country. Coming from the pastoral areas and for the people of the coastal region of Kenya, the passage of this Bill will mean quite a lot to us. From the outset, before I go into the depths of this Bill, one thing that struck me as I read across the stakeholders input in this Bill is the unavoidable ... view
• 1 Mar 2016 in National Assembly: Under Clause 6 of this Bill on the issue of the counties and their use of land, approval of use of land by the community before the county uses it is very important. The county cannot declare one day that it has given out a piece of land or set an area for industry. It must be understood now that all that is illegal. It is the community that owns the land that will determine what needs to be done. Clause 7 of the Bill has two challenges. First, it says that registration of community land must be to the ... view
• 1 Mar 2016 in National Assembly: existing laws. Those other laws are here and they have improper manner of managing the Land Bill. If the good intended Bill is to function well, we must repeal those other Acts. Misuse of community land by the national and county governments cannot be over- emphasised, as my good friend Hon. Katoo has put it very well. Do not just see a vast land in the pastoral areas and think that nobody owns it. We saw that problem when Lamu Port-South Sudan-Ethiopian Transport (LAPSSET) came to my constituency. The people concerned thought that, that open land was free land. I ... view
• 1 Mar 2016 in National Assembly: left us with piles of land records. He told us of every inch of land, how it was owned and it went down to the small communities. Part of those documents handed over to us form part of our laws. If only we can have time and study those existing records, we can resolve existing boundary issues between communities. Giving communities the right to manage their own land is a good provision. If we could properly organise the structures as we have said and give them the rights and not the Cabinet Secretary (CS) to determine how to register them ... view

Billow Kerrow, as a Member of the Pan African Parliament to replace Sen. Kipchumba Murkomen, who was elevated to the position of the Deputy Majority Leader. I beg to move that the provision of this Article is so important that this House has sent three Members and the Senate ... view
• 25 Feb 2016 in National Assembly: replace Sen. Murkomen with Sen. Billow, I am told Pan African Session is starting on Thursday next week. It is a small procedural matter which we can dispose of, so that Sen. Billow Kerrow can go and join our colleagues. If you give me your ear, there is a matter I want to raise here. These five Members often go to South Africa and they get a lot of difficulties in getting visas. I am sure, through your office, if you write to the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, I will ask that these five Members be accorded diplomatic passports, so ... view
