• 17 Jun 2015 in National Assembly: alleged sub-division of an area indicated as Number 3586 into two sub-plots. This is alleged to have happened in 1978 as presentation Number 102. Then the same entry is cancelled and we have an entry Number 18 supposedly done on 23rd September 1963. This is presentation number 689 which is declaration by the Crown dated that day declaring annual end to the same parcel of land. The question the sub-committee asked is: In 1963, how did somebody know that they were going to have an entry in 1978 which is about 15 years before? We found that this is a ... view
• 17 Jun 2015 in National Assembly: We were able to conclude that both the Muchanga and the Telesource claims are questionable. The Muchanga’s claim is fatally questionable for that particular presentation. It was unfortunate that Muchanga decided not to come to the Committee but once he learnt that the Committee is seized of the matter, he went to court. Telesource came and presented their documents. These were also the documents that we found at the Ministry of Lands, Housing and Urban Development. We also find that there are questionable ways in which one, John Mugo Kamau acquired this land and later transferred it to Telesource Limited. ... view

• 17 Jun 2015 in National Assembly: over their phones when a transaction has been registered on land that they own. That will ring an alarm bell that will enable quick and timely response to avoid issues where you are just looking at the postmortems. There is a current misunderstanding between the NLC and the Ministry of Lands, Housing and Urban Development. Right now, we are told that the officers who are supposed to be seconded from the Ministry of Lands, Housing and Urban Development to the NLC have been given warning letters that they dare not move to the NLC. They are lying idle because they ... view

• 17 Jun 2015 in National Assembly: The other issue is the slow pace of land registration. This House, since we came in, has never enacted any legislation on land. We are talking of the community land, amendments to the National Land Commission Act and all other serious issues including the Land Use Bill and all that. We are finding there is some slow motion in the Ministry and even in the NLC to bring up these Bills so that this House can enact them. So, we are saying from now hence forth, this House should be seized of Land Bills. As a Committee, we have said ... view
