    "content": "THAT, the people who have settled on the land have put it into good economic use, constructed residential houses and commercial centres which are earning them an income but the Government has neither adjudicated the land nor issued title deeds. THAT, the continued absence of landlords on this land and their failure to contribute to any development or welfare in the area has caused difficulties to the residents and has created major impediments in the people’s livelihoods. THAT, the residents of Mnarani have written many letters and lately, a memorandum to the National Lands Commission, but no action has been taken concerning the matter. THAT, both the national Government and the county government have invested heavily on the said piece of land by providing the necessary infrastructure such as electricity connectivity, water, roads and other social amenities. THAT, the matter presented in this Petition is not pending before any tribunal, court of law or independent body. Therefore, your humble petitioners pray that the National Assembly through the Public Petitions Committee: 1. Inquires into the ownership of the land occupied by residents of Mnarani registered as Plot No. YSR130 Section V situated at Mnarani-Kilifi Takaungu in the name of Kalthum Binti Mohammed and Shariffa Binti Mohammed. 2. Recommends that the parcel of land in Mnarani be acquired and granted to the present occupants and that the process of compensation be finalised. 3. Recommends that the parcel of land be adjudicated so as to ensure that the residents acquire title deeds and save the residents from the alleged erroneous records and missing information on the parcel of land. 4. Makes any other recommendation or actions it deems fit in addressing the plight of the petitioners. And your petitioners will ever pray. Thank you very much, Hon. Speaker."
