• 10 Apr 2019 in Senate: I urge the Committee that will deal with this matter not just to investigate but obligate the Ministries concerned or any other body such as the National Land Commission (NLC) to pay the owners of the land because whenever there is a conception of a project, land compensation is normally part of the cost of that project. This should also cover other parts of the country. It should not just be Taita-Taveta and I thank our distinguished colleague for bringing this Petition to the House. view
• 10 Apr 2019 in Senate: There are many places in this country where wananchi walk up and down Government offices for compensation of their properties taken until they give up. If the Government is going to impoverish and dispossess its own nationals and citizens, then God help the people of this country. view
• 10 Apr 2019 in Senate: I support the Petition and I hope that the Committee that will look at the matter will not sit on it for more than 60 days. In fact, this is a matter that can be done within the next three or four weeks so as to give justice to the people of Taita-Taveta. view
• 10 Apr 2019 in Senate: I thank you. view
• 10 Apr 2019 in Senate: Thank you, Madam Temporary Speaker. I also support this Petition form the people of Isiolo through their distinguished Senator. view
• 10 Apr 2019 in Senate: Land in very fragile ecosystems, the so called Arid and Semi-Arid Areas (ASAL) is something that has to be treated very carefully because the pastoralist communities need vast tracts of land for survival. We cannot start confining them in small enclaves under the pretext that we have given their land to the military. view
• 10 Apr 2019 in Senate: We have been to Isiolo many times. Indeed, it is true that there are so many military camps that one would think that if the Government wants to act prudently, they should amalgamate some of those units, so that they release land to the community for it to be used productively. view
• 10 Apr 2019 in Senate: Madam Temporary Speaker, secondly, the Committee that will look at this Petition must also examine the efficacy of the National Land Commission (NLC). We thought that with the Kenya Constitution, the creation of the NLC was going to solve problems of land. Instead they have multiplied everywhere: suspicious and unjustified compensations, alienation--- view
• 10 Apr 2019 in Senate: Thank you, Madam Temporary Speaker. The Committee must also look at the conduct of the NLC in this regard. I urge the Committee to recommend The electronic version of the Senate Hansard Report is for information purposesonly. A certified version of this Report can be obtained from the Hansard Editor, Senate. view
• 10 Apr 2019 in Senate: the reduction of military camps in Isiolo and release land to the people for their production and economic activities. view
