"content": "Marakwet East, UDA): Thank you, Hon. Speaker, for allowing me to support the Petition by Hon. Jematiah. The case raised by Hon. Jematiah is only a single case across the country. Where I come from, there is the Embobut Forest. The entire Embobut is a forest where most of us were brought up. It has administrative units of locations and sub- locations. There is a Deputy County Commissioner’s (DCC) Office. There is a Member of the County Assembly (MCA). It is a ward called Embobut/Embolot Ward in Marakwet East, but the entire place is gazetted as a forest. I think the Ministry of Environment, Climate Change and Forestry and Kenya Forest Service (KFS) do not understand many parts of this country, where forests are and where there is a settlement. I support that the gazettement be reversed. It should not mean that the Mochongoi area becomes a government forest because the people living there were displaced due to insecurity. Hon. Speaker, it is upon the Government to provide security there and ensure that the people of Mochongoi and Embobut are given title deeds.
