There are several public schools in Nairobi. As you know, land in Nairobi is very expensive. We have very many land grabbers hovering around because they know these schools do not have title deeds. We have people encroaching schools because no one understands the shape of the land. I support this Bill because these institutions will get absolute ownership. So, once and for all, we will do away with encroachers and those who prey for this land. The electronic version of the Official Hansard Report is for information purposesonly. A certified version of this Report can be obtained from the ...

There is a school facing a challenge in Pangani because a private investor has encroached it and wants to build modern stalls along its fence. There is contention because the geographical map of the school shows that that area is beyond the fence. So, the investor has built in the school compound. Also, Race Course Primary School has an issue because some people have built modern stalls in the school which does not possess a title deed. I support this Bill so that public institutions can be given title deeds and be answerable for activities that go on in schools.

My sister has talked about public toilets and utilities in Nairobi County. I want to indulge you on the same and say we need absoluteness in terms of control. This is because some of these utilities were constructed to bring affirmative action but have ended up in the wrong hands. Maybe, they were meant to support people living with disabilities, women or the youth. More often than not, we see them being controlled by other people who do not stand for the affirmative action. I really support this Bill to regularise everything in terms of matters lands that have been ...

given titles and regularly advertised being the holders of the title of the land, there would not have been these issues. However, if you dig deep, you see even the people who are called invaders, people who have invested there, something had to have been done by this corporation…

I am privy to information that some of the people who are being called invaders had a court order that had barred the East African Portland Cement from interfering with that land. That gave confidence to the people who invested in that land. Hon. Temporary Speaker, the so-called invasion started in 2003. You cannot tell me that these people were blind to all the happenings up to now. It is very disheartening for people to lose their property in such a scenario. All the Government agencies were silent when everything was happening. I visited that place and saw more than ...

Thank you, Hon. Temporary Speaker, for giving me the opportunity to support this Motion by my colleague, friend and the Deputy Whip of the Minority Party, Hon. Mwenje. Thank you for bringing up this issue. We have always had issues with land in this country. The 13th Parliament should go down in history as one that addressed the issues of land in absoluteness. We have a very big challenge. Our people have been demeaned by being called squatters in the 21st century. These are human beings entitled to dignified life. Basically, this is a very emotive issue. I take issue ...
