• 20 Dec 2011 in National Assembly: (b) We visited Twiga Farm in the company of the hon. Member and had all the Ruiru officials there. At that particular point in time, I did give instructions that all illegal structures within Twiga Farm be demolished. Those instructions were given in the presence of the hon. Member and they were followed through with a communication. It is only a matter of time. We had set 2nd of December, 2011 as the deadline, but I think there were some statutory requirements in terms of notice. Those structures should be going down any time now. Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir. view

• 20 Dec 2011 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I wish to undertake to the Member and to the House that as soon as we open the new year, I will make sure that all illegal structures will be demolished. All the structures on Twiga Farm will be demolished. The Member must appreciate that we even had a baraza with the residents over the issue. It is only humane that we give them this time to relocate. Come January, we will enforce that order to the letter. view

• 20 Dec 2011 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, we have by-laws that protect both public and private land. In the case of Twiga Farm, it was private land. It was a huge farm and the issue was brought to our attention by the Member. We need to enhance inspection and I would want to appeal to all municipalities to inspect to see whether illegal structures are on public or private land. We want them out. view
