• 15 Oct 2019 in National Assembly: When it comes to matters land, the Dorobo people, whom we are talking about and who are basically supposed to be the beneficiaries, fall under the category of the marginalised. Just like the Digo people of Kwale, we are marginalised and landless. So, any effort that the Executive would be putting in place to give land to the landless requires total support. As my colleagues have already said, without land, we would be stateless. view
• 15 Oct 2019 in National Assembly: The issue of turning this one into a settlement scheme is welcome. However, through experience, I know that the word “settlement scheme” has always been misused by Government officials thus creating a loophole for land grabbers, shylocks and politically-correct people to get land. We have so many cases even in my constituency. Talk of Golini Settlement Scheme, it was land that was occupied and developed by the locals, but because it was designated as a settlement scheme, we ended up with over 50 per cent of that land being given to non-locals. I think there is a law which says ... view

• 24 Oct 2018 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. Let me start by congratulating Hon. Njagua for bringing this timely Motion. As earlier mentioned with his permission, it should not be urging the Government. Previous experiences had people urging the Government, but nothing happens after that, even after we have passed it as a House.
