    "content": "I would like to request the Committee on Implementation to go ahead and inquire into the extent that the Government has implemented what we resolved in the 11th Parliament in terms of compensation. When we had post-election violence in 2007/2008, Kenyans lost their lives. I do not know the exact amount, but billions of shillings were used to compensate the families that were affected. The suffering arising from cattle rustling has become so serious. I would like to appeal to our Government that we need to consider compensation. We are prepared, as a House. The resolution of the House in the last Parliament is the need to compensate the families of the affected people. My appeal to the committee is to go beyond this Petition and consider the resolutions of the House and ensure that they are implemented because we cannot resolve in vain in this House. I support this Petition."
