    "content": "The amendment by Hon. Atandi to the Committee’s recommendations to have Mr Edwin Harold Dayan Dande personally liable is a welcome idea. What these people do is that they open a company. They are very quick in making very lucrative advertisements all over social media, print media and on television. They are very quick to have celebrities do endorsements and tell us how good these companies are. They quickly fold up the companies once they realise the returns they want. They run down that company and sink that money or use it to live their luxurious lives. Then, they reorganise themselves, open a different company and do the same thing. We have seen this with other companies, not just Cytonn. We know Cytonn did it big time. We have all these ‘buroti maguta maguta’ advertisements going on everywhere, especially in our vernacular radio and television stations. Once you go to establish whether these parcels of land exist, you realise most of them do not. People make deposits and payments for land. They realise that land is not there when they seek it. When they go to take their title deeds, they are treated to stories. They never get their title deeds. In its oversight role over the National Land Commission and all agencies involved with land matters, I urge the Departmental Committee on Lands to take this issue seriously and investigate all other companies going with people’s savings."
