    "content": " Thank you, Hon. Speaker. Let me take this early opportunity to thank Mr Peter Kinyua for his Petition on behalf of the people of Kibera. He says there are around 560 people who were displaced by the railway with a promissory note that they will get houses thereafter. It is important that as the Kenya Kwanza Government, we are committed to the issue of housing and that the relevant committee goes straight to look at how these people can get their houses. In my constituency, Emuhaya Constituency, the Kenya Railways equally displaced so many people from the areas of Ipali, Itumbu and Mungoye. Those people were living along the railway line for the longest period but to date, they have not been resettled anywhere. As the committee looks at this matter, I would like them to comprehensively look at the damage the Kenya Railways may have done to families that were living along the railway yet they gave a promissory note that those people will be resettled."
