Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. The issue of land is very emotive. Parliament is held with high esteem and anything that is said on the Floor of the House can have a serious influence or effect on what goes on out there. A few minutes ago, when Hon. Mwiti Irea was contributing to this Motion, he said something that should either be withdrawn or expunged from the Report. He alleged that Hon. Mburi Mwiru opened a police station in his constituency. I believe we do not have constituents of Tharaka who live in Hon. Mwiti’s zone. That is how ...

It is proper business ethics that you have to give the community and workers that serve you proper amenities like schools, hospitals and police posts so that you can give back to the society.

Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. Let me, first of all, start by congratulating Hon. Sakaja not just because of this Bill. For the days we have been here, this young legislator has brought many Bills on the youth. In fact, if we were in the old dispensation, he could be the Minister for Youth Affairs. But now, he might have to rely on what he has been doing for the youth to vie for a seat. I am sure he will benefit from the votes of those youth because they are for him. We have talked a lot about ...

has been very good for people who live in that neighbourhood. Those who live there can attest to that fact. That is what creation of jobs can do. That is what this Bill by Hon. Sakaja will do to assist reduce the unemployment rate that currently stands at 40 per cent. Effective communication is very important in creation of jobs. Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, you have campaigned in Nairobi and you know the informal sector. If you want a fundi, you wake up in the morning, go to a place in River Road where artisans hawk their skills and you ...
