    "content": " Thank you very much, Hon. Speaker. I will comment on the first Petition. I support it and I would like it to be dealt with expeditiously, so that the issue of squatters can at least be addressed and possibly resolved. Hon. Speaker, I had just retreated to the back chamber to discuss very important legal matters that are coming to the House. I heard the Member for North Imenti mention a place known as Kwa Ng’ombe. He said that the area belongs to North Imenti, but it is occupied by squatters from Tharaka Constituency. Allow me to say that this is extremely frivolous and vexatious. In fact, Hon. Dawood does not know where Kwa Ng’ombe is nor has he set foot there or sought for votes. He does not even have a single development in that area. The record will bear me witness that the market known as Kwa Ng’ombe is in Tharaka Nithi County. The primary school at Kwa Ng’ombe is in Tharaka Constituency, and that is the polling station where I was voted in. The only reason why Hon. Dawood brought this claim is purely because he might have run out of land in Meru. He is now seeing untitled land in Tharaka and wishes to have his people occupy it. So, that is not true. Kwa Ng’ombe and the other places along the boundary are in Tharaka. As far as Hon. Iringo is concerned, he comes from Igembe Central which does not border Tharaka at all."
