"content": "Thank you, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, for giving me an opportunity to comment on this important Petition. On the matter of housing in this country and the future of ensuring that there is enough housing for everybody, there must be a programme in which the people take a loan with the Government. The loan should be supplied equally and sufficiently to all people, so that justice is seen to be done. Whatever happens in Nairobi City County should be seen to happen in Mombasa, Makueni, Kiambu and any other part of the country. There should be no different standards in different parts of the country as to the housing projects, most importantly, where people have been moved out of a land that is to have Government housing for the people who are to pay for it. There should be a system of making sure that they do not lose their land, like it happened in Mombasa and Kibera. It should be the same people who were displaced from the land, who should get the first priority in benefiting from this programme. The moment there is equity, it will be fair to everybody. Priority must be given to the vanquished and those who do not have property at all or place to stay. I support and thank the Members who went to Mombasa County. They ensured light has been seen for the benefit of the petitioners and the whole country."
