    "content": "THAT, Coast Development Company submitted an application to the County Government of Kilifi seeking an approval for its proposed change of user from agricultural to residential plot No.5046/11. The same was approved on 27th June 2018. THAT, the petitioners have written many letters to the National Lands Commission but no action has been taken concerning the matter; THAT, both the National Government and County Government have invested heavily in the said piece of land by providing the necessary infrastructure such as electricity connectivity, water, roads and other social amenities; THAT, the land has not been adjudicated and, therefore, no title deeds have been issued; 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 the residents of Misufini, Vibandani and Kibarani sub-locations - Kilifi North Constituency in the name of Coast Development Company. 2. establishes whether Coast Development Company is a legally registered company and the number of locals that bought shares in the Coast Development Company and their fate in terms of their shareholding in the company. 3. recommends that the Government under the 1 Million Acre Compulsory Land Acquisition Programme acquires the land for the local residents and that the land be adjudicated so as to ensure that the residents acquire title deeds; and, 4. makes any other recommendations or actions it deems fit in addressing the plight of the petitioners. Thank you, Hon. Speaker."
