    "content": " Thank you, Hon. Deputy Speaker. I want to support the petition by Hon. Adams Kipsanai. It is a similar case in my constituency; elephants have terrorized my people. They have been good farmers, but they no longer farm due to elephant invasion that has impoverished them. Those whose farms were invaded have not been compensated. The KWS takes their details, but it takes centuries for them to be compensated. Similarly, in Baringo, we have cases of snake bites. Many people have been victims, and it is more tedious to be compensated for snake bites. We want to support that petition and ensure that those attacked by snakes, leopards, cheetahs, and elephants are compensated. In Lake Bogoria, we have a serious case where people were evicted during the formation of the reserve, and they have never been compensated. We want to ask the Petition Committee to look at this issue. We will be giving them more details so that they can help fast-track in helping Kenyans from suffering historical injustices. The government has not compensated them for what they have gone through and are still going through. The electronic version of the Official Hansard Report is for information purposesonly. A certified version of this Report can be obtained from the Hansard Editor."
