Thank you, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. From the outset, land is an emotive issue that should be handled carefully. I have been following the issue of Isiolo for a couple of days. It is sad that the county commissioner is on a collision path with Members of Parliament (MPs) or the leadership from Isiolo County.

The opinions and views of Kenyans must be respected. I wonder why the people of Isiolo are being ignored by their leadership.

Thank you, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. I want to congratulate the Committee on Roads and Transportation for that Statement. I have seen that last week, they did summon the Minister in charge of Roads and Infrastructure, Cabinet Secretary, Mr. Macharia. Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, two things. One, I want to call upon them that the rains are ongoing and as a result there is so much destruction of roads across the country. We even witnessed this havoc in West Pokot, in the City and across the counties. Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I would urge the Committee to move with speed ...
