• 21 Nov 2013 in National Assembly: Those people had been incapacitated and they had not been compensated by KWS. They had hospitals bills that had not been taken care of and they could no longer work for their families. So, I would also urge that hospitals costs for those who have been injured by wildlife must be taken care of. Again, it is very punitive that the wildlife finds you in your own farm and injures you and finally you get to meet the cost. Our areas, particularly group ranches, and even individual ranches around the parks provide a dispersal area for wildlife. If this Bill ... view
• 6 Nov 2013 in National Assembly: On a point of order, hon. Speaker. Is the Leader of Majority Party in order to impute improper motives on Members of this House who intend to debate this matter? He is actually trying to preempt and stifle debate on this matter. view
• 6 Nov 2013 in National Assembly: Thank you, hon. Speaker, I want to put it on record that if money has exchanged hands--- If there are those who have received money, I have not received money from anybody. However, I also want to put it on record that I support, recognise and appreciate the power of this House to oversee the Executive. view
• 6 Nov 2013 in National Assembly: Hon. Speaker, there are either omissions or commissions in the Committee’s Report. The report has not indicated anything to do with the illegality of the position of the Lands Secretary that has existed illegally since August 2010. This position is not in the Constitution, but somebody has been there exercising its powers and signing legal documents. view
• 6 Nov 2013 in National Assembly: Hon. Speaker, this report does not also appreciate the corrective measures that the Cabinet Secretary took after realising the mistake she had made, just like any other human being will do; she took corrective measures. This report has also leveled a number of accusations against the Cabinet Secretary, that she has disregarded the Principal Secretary in doing the appointments, yet in the Constitution, the Cabinet Secretary is the Chief Executive Officer (CEO) in the Ministry. I think the role of the CEO of the Ministry really should have been recognised. view
• 6 Nov 2013 in National Assembly: Hon. Speaker, the Leader of Majority Party indicated that the Cabinet Secretary did not consult the Attorney-General for advice on the appointments or on the gazettement. I would want to inform this House that the Land Registration Act, Section 108, gives the Cabinet Secretary the power to make changes in registration matters. Yes, you can consult about that. You can get that document. I believe it is available. view
• 6 Nov 2013 in National Assembly: Hon. Speaker, the report does not also appreciate the fact that the Cabinet Secretary had consulted before doing the redeployment. The Cabinet Secretary, on 10th September, 2013, actually had a letter from the Directorate of Public Service Management, advising on redeployment of the same staff. I am left wondering whether what is happening now is about cartels that are very well known to operate in the Ministry fighting back. The electronic version of the Official Hansard Report is for information purposesonly. A certified version of this Report can be obtained from the Hansard Editor. view
• 6 Nov 2013 in National Assembly: Hon. Speaker, right now the Department of Lands is facing a number of court cases that will cost this country several billions. There are pieces of land which belong to five embassies that are already in dispute. These are the Rwanda Embassy in Mombasa, the Kuwait Embassy in Westlands, the Tanzanian, Liberia and Libyan embassies in the city centre. They were fraudulently allocated land, and this has exposed this country to diplomatic rows. view
• 6 Nov 2013 in National Assembly: Hon. Speaker, there is the Ramisi Settlement Scheme where 7,930 acres of land were issued to a private company on 28th December 2012 and grants collected on 2nd January, 2013. There is land which belongs to the National Social Security Fund (NSSF) – the pensioner’s fund – LR No.20305-20310 in Mavoko, which was fraudulently allocated to individuals and companies through forged deed plans and signatures. view
• 6 Nov 2013 in National Assembly: Hon. Speaker, let me not continue; what I am trying to say is that this House could actually be operating in a mob justice way and bringing back staff. A lot of these things happened under the watch of Mr. Mabea. These are the same people we are saying should be taken back to the Department of Lands. view
