Madam Temporary Deputy Speaker, I know that some hon. Members have ivoked the name of the late Prof. Wangari Maathai. She must be turning in her grave, wondering where the defenders of public good are in this House. Where are the defenders of public land in this House?

15 Nov 2011 in National Assembly:
Madam Temporary Deputy Speaker, there is no title that has come from the Government for all those properties. The titles that those people are holding are forgeries. Instead of Members of Parliament wanting to learn the truth, all we are getting from the Minister for Lands and me is rude interruption, so that the truth does not come out. The point here---
