    "content": "THAT, the residents have sought assistance from various state institutions, including the Kwale County Commissioner but no satisfactory intervention has come forth; THAT, if Greatcom’s illegal encroachment of the petitioner’s land is not reversed, the petitioners not only risk being rendered squatters on their own land but also losing their livelihoods; and, THAT, the matters raised in this Petition are not pending before any court of law, constitutional or legal body. Therefore, your humble petitioners pray for intervention of this House, through the Departmental Committee on Lands. The Committee is requested to: (1) Investigate the circumstances under which M/S Greatcom Ltd.; illegally fenced off private land belonging to over 50 families; (2) Compel the M/S Greatcom Ltd. to immediately vacate the encroached land so as to enable the petitioners to revert to their settlements and access public utilities that have been fenced off by Greatcom; (3) Cause the concerned national government departments to re-survey the area to ascertain the boundary between the petitioners’ land and LR. No. Kwale/Tiwi 4752/2; (4) Restrain M/S Greatcom Ltd. from any further development on the petitioner’s land pending re-survey; and; (5) Make any other recommendations deemed fit in safeguarding the petitioners’ rights. And your petitioner will ever pray. Thank you, Hon. Speaker."
