Hon. Speaker, I rise to ask Question No.489 of 2019 directed to the Cabinet Secretary for Lands and Physical Planning: (i) Could the Cabinet Secretary confirm whether land in Turkana County has been demarcated, surveyed or subdivided for purposes of settling the residents, including demarcating trust land and changing of land ownership from customary tenure to individual or group ownership? (ii) Could the Cabinet Secretary also provide a list of persons and entities that have been issued with title deeds in the entire Turkana County? (iii) What measures is the Ministry putting in place to ensure that residents of Turkana ...

Asante sana, Mhe. Naibu Spika wa Muda, kwa kunipatia nafasi hii nipate kuunga mkono Hoja hii ambayo imeletwa na rafiki yangu Mhe. Ali. Mahali ninakotoka kuna ufukara wa hali ya juu zaidi. Sehemu ya Loima katika kaunti ya Turkana ndiyo sehemu shida ilianzia. Kwa hivyo, wakati niliona Hoja hii, niliona kwamba watu wangu wa Loima na watu wa Kenya kijumla watafaidika zaidi. Hii ni kwa sababu ada hii itaondolewa kwa wale ambao wanakufa hospitalini. Wakati mtu ambaye hawezi kupata chakula hata mara moja kwa siku anakuwa mgonjwa, hushikwa na dukuduku hata kuenda hospitalini. Ni kwa sababu anajua hata kuingia hospitalini ...

Kamati husika sharti ihakikishe kwamba Hoja hii imetekelezwa. Tunajua kwamba watu wetu watafaidika pakubwa zaidi. Kule Turkana ni kama ugonjwa wa saratani ni mwingi sana katika maeneo ambayo jua ni jingi sana. Wakati mtu katika eneo hilo anapatikana na ugonjwa huo, inakuwa vigumu mtu huyo kukubali kuenda hospitalini, kwa sababu ile ada ambayo atatozwa pale ni kubwa zaidi na hataweza kuilipa. Kwa hivyo, itakuwa vizuri kama Hoja hii nzuri itapitishwa. Hasa ningependa kumpongeza Mhe. Ali. Mara nyingi amekuwa akileta Hoja ambazo zinasaidia jamii. Kwa hivyo, itakuwa vyema kama sisi Waheshimiwa tutaunga Hoja hii mkono. Ninaunga mkono.

Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker for giving me this opportunity to contribute to this piece of legislation. Before, I make my contribution I thank Loima Constituency Football Club which won the inter-constituencies competition which was sponsored by Coca-Cola. A team I formed during the competitions performed well and took the trophy. Secondly, I also want to thank them because they went all the way to the finals with Turkana West Football Club during the County Women Representative competitions which were conducted in Lodwar, though the winner was not determined because of chaos. Going to the Bill, I think Members ...

Thank you, Hon. Deputy Speaker, for giving me an opportunity to appreciate this very important Report. I rise to support this very important Motion based on the fact that I am representing a constituency that closely does a lot of trade with Ugandan communities especially, the districts that border Loima Constituency.

I think by ratifying this Protocol, we will open new opportunities in terms of trade and industry. My community directly deals with the people of Uganda in matters of trade. By allowing the ICT system between the partner states to operate, the people of Loima will know the types of viable businesses they can engage in with the Ugandan Government. Secondly, because sometimes we have issues with our neighbours it will enhance peaceful co-existence between communities and especially the pastoralist who move from place to place. Our pastoralists move from Kenya to Uganda. So, this will create smooth co-existence between ...

Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, for giving me this opportunity to contribute. I come from a constituency that does not really enjoy these kinds of services. I think we are all aware that most of our areas in Turkana County are not connected even with telecentres or Safaricom boosters. So, with provision of free internet to all the 290 constituencies, I think my constituency, and even other constituencies in Turkana County and the northern parts, will enjoy this service directly. It has been the role of the Jubilee Government to provide this service to the entire country. If the ...

In my constituency, there is very serious insecurity. To me, trying to attend to that insecurity has been a very hard thing because I cannot talk to my people in Kotaruk. By having free internet and even having the telecentres within those particular areas, we will address the issues of insecurity across the country or those parts that are affected by insecurity. The advantage of this kind of service of free Wi-Fi is that it can be accessed via satellite through a very small aperture terminal. I support this very important Motion because the entire country of Kenya will be ...

Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker for giving me this chance. I will start by recognising my honourable colleague, Mr. Jomo, for bringing this important Motion. Indeed, incidents of arson across the country have become so many. This surely puts us in an awkward situation in trying to determine what is really happening across the country. In mid-1980s when some of us started schooling, cases of arson were so rare; you could not experience even one. This means there is something wrong. Maybe, both parents and the Government are sleeping on their job. The implementation of the Motions we pass ...
