    "content": " Thank you, Hon. Speaker. I also rise to support the Petition. When you look at the Petition, you realise it started even before we went into the new Constitution. The people of Awendo have sought answers since 1988. We have come to 2003 and we do not have anything called Awendo Township Council. That is why they find themselves believing that this House can give them justice. I think it is important for the Public Petitions Committee to realise that that has been the case for a very long time. There is need we finalise this matter for them. More importantly, it is not just this matter. Many people are going through many challenges because of promulgating the new Constitution. They find themselves wondering how to deal with the Ministry of Lands and the Judiciary. We know that we have arbitration. I am hoping the Public Petitions Committee will start bringing us reports even for the petitions we have seen in this House. When you look at the 90 days within which the Committee should respond to petitions, I think time has lapsed for some of them. It will just be fair if this House gives recommendations for any petition received. With those few remarks, I support.
