    "content": "The Kipsigis Community is seeking redress in the form of compensation and an apology by the British Government for the damage caused in the forceful eviction and use of their land. (d)The Kipsigis Community lodged a claim with the National Land Commission (NLC) in 2017. However, disagreements arose on some of the recommendations made by the Commission as the community members were not involved in negotiations. (e)The Petitioners have forwarded the matter to relevant authorities for consideration, but the response has been unsatisfactory. That none of the issues raised in this Petition are pending before any court of law or any other legal body. (4) Consequently, the Petitioners pray to the Senate as follows; (i) That you hear and consider this Petition. (ii) That you assist in following up law suits against the British colonial government for compensation and a formal apology. (3) Intervene and ensure necessary institutions, bodies and review all land laws regulations put in place by the British Colonial Government that are discriminated towards indigenous African communities and lawfully return the land to Kipsigis Community to be registered as the Kipsigis Community Group of Teas. (4) Intervene into solutions of disputed recommendations made by LNC on the matter. (5) Take any measures and recommendations that the Senate may deem appropriate. Thank you."
