So, I was just adding to what the Hon. Leader of the Majority Party has said with regard to the importance of this Bill. I hope that National Assembly is convinced enough to allow the reduction of the publication period from 7 to 4 days.

Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairman, initially, I was really opposed to this amount which is being allocated to the Lake Basin Development Authority. I realised that if we do not provide this money, we ran the risk of losing the investment of this property. As one leader who comes from that region, I am hesitant to support an initiative that would result into a property which is already in Kisumu getting disposed of by banks to recover their loan.

Thank you very much Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. I also want to support the Report by the Committee and add may voice that the Committee has done a commendable job in the sense that we have seen some concrete recommendations, recommendations that are implementable and recommendations that can be pursued further.

26 Jun 2018 in National Assembly:
I plead with the House that when it comes to matters as touchy as this one, matters bordering on clear cases of corruption, it is important we give each one of us the latitude to express ourselves freely and openly. I do not want to challenge the Chair of the Committee, but the Report has touched on a number of issues. It has mentioned the NLC, starting from the chairman to other commissioners, it has mentioned something to do with the Ministry of Education or Early Education, the National Treasury is mentioned and the Attorney-General is in it. So, the ...

were only advising them to proceed with compulsory acquisition. What have we employed the AG to do? I can even offer that opinion as well. Why do we need legal minds to do that? The investigation must not only end at the NLC, it should go a step further to the AG and the Ministry of Education, Science and Technology. Why the National Treasury is standing out for me is because this money was paid out of funds that were not available. As we speak, the people of Kenya have incurred an expenditure which is illegal. Parliament has not approved ...

Cabinet Secretary for National Treasury, Henry Rotich. You did not want us to mention the names and I am telling you we have to mention these names. If we have to slay the dragon of corruption in this country, we have to mention names. These people are not faceless. We put you in public office in trust to protect taxpayers’ money. Remember Kenyans who earn less than Kshs20,000 pay tax. They pay tax for other people to profit. People who earn huge sums of money at the end of the month still want to take Kenyans’ money. It is painful. ...

people of Kenya, I would not wait to go to The Hague, I would just resign. We cannot put you in an office and then you mess up with our funds and tell us you can go to The Hague. The Committee’s finding is that there was no valuation. Honestly, which NLC would pay land without valuation? Did we employ competent people in the NLC? Which NLC would make payments for land without valuation? They are telling us they relied on stamp duty paid for other pieces of land around that place. Maybe they were asking people who have land ...
