• 20 Dec 2011 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, when we visited the Twiga Farm, we established that the structures were illegal.

All we need to do is enhance pre-emptive measures, so that we can educate the residents who put up mabati or other structures that they cannot put them up without the authority of the council. We need to carry out a public awareness and education campaign to ensure that the law is followed. view

• 20 Dec 2011 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, first, I wish the Member had alerted me when we were in Ruiru that there was a similar case because we would have dealt with it.

• 20 Dec 2011 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, once again, I would like to ask your indulgence and hopefully direction as the Member has asked.
