    "content": "THAT, despite the Truth, Justice and Reconciliation Commission (TJRC) issuing a Gazette Notice confirming the Bwika family as the rightful owner of plot LR No.13444 DIANI BEACH, the local administration submitted documents indicating that new plot number had changed to 13665/1-KWALE under the ownership of Gami Properties limited. THAT, the purported developer has already commenced construction of a perimeter wall around the plot with the aid of police officers who offer 24-hour security at the site despite the plot belonging rightfully to the Bwika family who have paid its annual land rates to the local authority for decades. THAT, efforts to have this matter further addressed by the relevant authorities including the Kwale Land Registry, the then Commissioner of Lands and multiple Government officials have been futile. AND THAT, the matter in respect of which this Petition is made is not pending before any court of law or constitutional body. NOW THEREFORE, your humble petitioners pray that the National Assembly, through the Departmental Committee on Lands: (i) enquires into the matter with a view to securing, with the assistance of the National Land Commission (NLC), the revocation of the current title deed from Gami Properties Limited and the subsequent issuance of a title deed to the Bwika family and the restoration of land parcels under the Diani Beach Complex to the rightful owners; and, (ii) makes any other order or direction that it deems fit in the circumstances of the matter. Your petitioners will forever pray. Thank you, Hon. Speaker."
