"content": " Thank you, Hon. Speaker, for giving me this chance. I think my constituency is most affected. I rise to support this Petition. When I saw this in today’s program, I went to look at those units which were started seven years ago. When these people were displaced from Laini Saba, Soweto and Lindi, they were promised that within two years they would have houses. I went there yesterday and about 560 are almost complete. The total units were about 900 and the other 360 have no roofs. This project should have ended a long time ago. People are suffering and Kenya Railways has started building walls along the railway lines where these people were displaced. They have no place to go. I realised a committee was formed to get the names of those supposed to occupy these houses. I am asking the committee that will look into this matter to incorporate me so I can give them the facts on the ground. I realised the delay is because the contractor has not been paid the full amount. In our culture, when someone inherits your wife, he inherits her with all the problems and the good things. Now that the new Government has inherited this issue, we ask them to pay the contractors so that the people of Kibra can have good places to live in. Otherwise, I support the Petition. Thank you, Hon. Speaker."
