    "content": " Thank you, Hon. Speaker. I see things differently. Those pieces of land were gazetted in the past because our fore-fathers had foresight on how they could be used. There are many Petitions that urge the Government to de-gazette parcels of lands in Kenya. In other places, we find that land that was set aside for veterinarian purposes, but people want it de-gazetted and shared. It should be used for the purpose for which it was set aside. I know there are many pieces of land that have been de-gazetted and people are agitating for that. If we see the bigger picture of the country, we should not de-gazette what was gazetted for a particular purpose unless the purpose is no longer viable to us. If it is not viable now, future generations will make better use of that particular parcel of land for all Kenyans and not for one particular community."
