"content": "This massive land allocation has affected both Lamu District and Tana Delta districts, which I represent. It appears to us that the more things change, the more things remain the same. In that Ministerial Statement, we would like the Minister to clarify the following issues:- (1) who owns land exceeding 50 acres in those two areas, be it Government land or land allocated to them in whatever way; (2) where land is allocated to companies, we would like to know the directors of those companies; (3) how many local people have been allocated any land parcels in the Lamu and Tana Delta Districts, if any at all; (4) we would like him to confirm whether he can cancel the titles or letters of allotment that have been issued to those speculators without any regard to sentiments by the local residents; and, (5) we would want to know whether the Land Policy that is currently being debated in this House can apply retroactively, so that there can be cancellation of the entitlement of that land to these speculators, which has disenfranchised, disinherited and marginalised the local communities in that area. Thank you, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir."
