    "content": "Mr. Speaker, Sir, I rise pursuant to Standing Order No.48 (1) to seek for a Statement from the Standing Committee on Land, Environment and Natural Resources on the progress in compensating Kagaa Kilifi Land Owners Group with reference to LR. NO. 2859 and 1427 of Kilifi County. In the Statement, the Committee should- (1) Apprise the Senate on the progress made by the Ministry of Lands in compensating Kagaa Kilifi Land Owners Group for land repossessed by the Government for distribution to squatters. (2) State reasons for the delay in finalizing the matter, taking into account that this land was owned by people of Murang’a County, in particular Kandara Area, and squatters went there and our people from Murang’a have been unable to realize the economic benefits of the said piece of land. (3) Give timelines within which this process will be completed, tabling progress report and evaluation of the status of land settlement. (4) Outline measures that have been put in place, if any, to ensure that land disputes between land owners and squatters on land ownership are swiftly dealt with. Mr. Speaker Sir, there was a presidential directive. When Charles Rubia was being buried in Murang’a, I requested the President to help the people of Kandara to expedite the process. That is why we are inquiring about the status."
