• 23 Mar 2016 in Senate: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I would like to thank the petitioners. I congratulate them because this matter is not new in this House. We have had many cases which have come to my Committee. If you will remember, one of them was the issue of Konza Techno City in Machakos which generated so much steam. I do not know what happened finally. A committee was formed, following the requisition by Sen. Mutula Kilonzo Jnr., to look into constitutional matters which are supposed to be followed so that the IEBC hears from all counties, so that all county boundaries are settled, ... view

• 23 Mar 2016 in Senate: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I still stand by the answers that I have given on the Floor of this House that I do not have that information. The information I have from the Ministry is on all the schools that have applied for land title deeds. There could be other schools which have not applied for title deeds, but I do not have that information. I wish that you could allow me to respond to the interventions that were raised by other Members. view

• 23 Mar 2016 in Senate: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, the point I am making is that the first question has two parts; one, provide a list of all public schools in Kenya. I do not have that list. I insist that information should be provided by the Committee on Education because all public schools in Kenya are in their domain. They should be able to give us a list of all public and private schools in Kenya. If there are any schools that need title deeds, I am responsible for providing that information as the Chairperson of the Committee on Lands and Natural Resources. There ... view
• 23 Mar 2016 in Senate: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, this is very clear. It brings us exactly to the position where I said the information in the Ministry of Education is not in my domain. I do not intend to imply that only 345 schools in Kenya have title deeds. These are only those which applied and have been processed. view
• 23 Mar 2016 in Senate: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I am happy you have hit the nail on the head. The question of how many schools – or for example, we can say, how many citizens are there in Kenya? We can have a list. Then, how many of them have applied for land title deeds? It is very easy for us to know how many people have applied for title deeds. However, to know how many people have title deeds and have not applied or maybe how many people may need title deeds. In this instance, I am talking about schools. It would be ... view
