    "content": "Thank you, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. I rise, pursuant to Standing Order No. 53(1), to seek a Statement from the Standing Committee on Land, Environment and Natural Resources on the compensation due to Nairobi residents in Mihang’o Ward, Embakasi East Constituency for the illegal demolition of their houses by the Kenya Power Company in 2019. In the Statement, the Committee should - (1) Give reasons for the delay in compensating the residents of Mihangó ward for the illegal demolition of their houses four years later; (2) State steps to ensure that the Kenya Power company is held accountable in compensating the affected residents, as their houses were illegally demolished noting that the houses were beyond the boundary at 15 meters to 20 meters away from the wayleave; (3) State short-term and long-term measures that the Company will implement to avoid future unnecessary loss of property and discourage illegal encroachment; and (4) Finally, cause the Company to erect physical beacons on visible barriers to clearly mark the boundaries of the power wayleave. Thank you."
