    "content": "Mills Limited and is currently charged in favour of Barclays Bank of Kenya Limited for USD 4 million. There is an attached Annexure V. The LR/No. 12034/3, certificate of title IR 195069 is currently registered in favour of EMCO Billets and Steel Limited and is charged in favour of Co-operative Bank of Kenya Limited for Ksh1,896,207,954. There is an attached Annexure VI. The LR/No.12247 (Original Title) 11344/4 measuring approximately 5.198 hectares is currently registered in favour of EMCO Steel Works Kenya Limited, Grant IR 33533 and marked as Annexure VII. The title was initially granted to the then City Council of Nairobi on a 99-year lease which commenced on 1st January 1978 to be utilised for a steel rolling mill. The Council transferred the parcel to EMCO Steel Works Kenya Limited on 16th April 1981. The LR/No.12504 measuring approximately 10.06 hectares is currently registered in favour of EMCO Billets and Steel Limited. You can see grant No.IR 33501 marked as Annexure IV. The parcel was granted on a 99-year lease which commenced on 1st October 1978 to be utilised for industrial purposes. In response to part (ii), I wish to state as follows: In Nairobi, HCCC No. 1348 of 1972, Kiambu Dandora Farmers Company Limited was decreed as the registered proprietor of LR/No.11379/3 measuring approximately 818 acres. From the parcels listed above, LR/No.12504 currently registered in favour of EMCO Billets and Steel Limited is located within LR/No.11379/3. This has thus led to the conflict between the two companies. In 1974, the then Commissioner of Lands sought to acquire LR/No.11379/3 for future urban development vide Gazette Notices No.840 and 841 published on 15th March 1974. Annexure IX are copies of the Gazette Notices. Through the said acquisition, LR/No.12504 was allocated for industrial purposes. Kiambu Dandora Farmers Company Limited claim it was never compensated and have filed Nairobi Constitutional Petition No.47 of 2011 now consolidated with Nairobi ELC Case No.1518 of 2013 seeking their land or alternative compensation for the land. This matter is in court pending determination. I submit."
