• 6 Jun 2018 in National Assembly: There is also implementation of the National Special Plan and National Land Use Policy to ensure optimal and sustainable use of land. The matter of resettlement is a matter that touches on all of us as people’s representatives. We have thousands of squatters in our country who have not been resettled. Resettlement is quite low compared to the number of squatters that need land. We have thousands of squatters in various places like in Rift Valley, Coast is most affected; Lamu, Kilifi, Taita Taveta, Mombasa, Trans-Nzoia and many other parts of the country. I also want to talk about the ... view
• 6 Jun 2018 in National Assembly: even if the national Government plans, it is impossible to get the kind of structures that are required. view
• 6 Jun 2018 in National Assembly: The NLC got an allocation of 1.275 billion. Its requirement was Kshs5 billion. The Committee is convinced that the programmes that they are implementing are very important and they need to be funded. I have already engaged the Chair of the Budget and Appropriations Committee concerning Kshs300 million that was meant for digitisation. The Committee had proposed that this money be pushed to titling and other activities that work towards it. However, this money has remained with the Ministry of Information, Communications and Technology (ICT). It is a matter of concern for the Committee. We had suggested that it should ... view
• 6 Jun 2018 in National Assembly: There are gaps in NLC. One is that they need money for historical land injustices which is a matter that has been raised for many areas. They need Kshs250 million which has not been provided. The Kshs300 million has also not been provided. It was meant to come up with a comprehensive Government programme for registration of title deeds of land throughout the country. view
• 6 Jun 2018 in National Assembly: There is also a deficit in physical emoluments. There is also a gap in staff pensions. I know the matter of pensions comes up in almost all committees, but it is important that we raise it so that it goes on record. view
• 6 Jun 2018 in National Assembly: The land sector is an enabler of the Big Four Agenda and this is the reason why we are asking it be facilitated more. It is going to facilitate the acquisition of land for housing, standard gauge railway, parks and industrial parks, and provision of the legal framework that is needed to cut the cost of leasing to attract private and foreign investors. It is also going to provide the legal framework to halt further sub-divisions of land, some of which are not helping. If land is funded, as a supporter of the Big Four Agenda, it is going to ... view
• 3 May 2018 in National Assembly: Thank you very much, Hon. Deputy Speaker. I know that this Petition has been raised by Hon. Mwashetani, who is the Vice Chair of the Departmental Committee on Lands. He will come to our Committee. However, I would like to make a short comment about this Petition, as the Member for Kitui South. view
• 3 May 2018 in National Assembly: There is a problem with the roads that are being constructed. We really need them, but currently there are complaints in my constituency along all the towns that are within Kitui South, more so in Athi, Mutomo, Ikanga and Ikutha. This is because KeNHA has changed the size of the road. It was initially supposed to be 20 metres from the centre of the road, but it has since been increased to 30 metres. People’s houses have been demolished and towns are affected. As we deal with the matters that have been raised by Hon. Mwashetani, we call upon KeNHA ... view
