    "content": "and, it ceases being a private piece of land. Hence, you cannot access it anymore. It must be transferred to the entity concerned with that aspect. Lastly, we must take extremely serious punitive measures against unscrupulous dealers who resell and re-subdivide the public land they had already set aside. Not only must we take action against those unscrupulous dealers, but we must also take serious action against government entities and civil servants who encourage this. There are those who connive and collude with those unscrupulous dealers to ensure they sub-divide the land and give titles to those lands so that it ends up disadvantaging the community that went ahead to invest in that estate or land. That action must be taken to ensure we are putting punitive measures as a deterrent to that in future. I encourage Hon. King’ara to go ahead and look at fractional ownership of houses in the city. I know we have had serious complaints from some people who have bought apartments in upmarket and other areas. Sometimes, you buy the apartment with the promise that they have left for you some space for a gym in the basement, some room for sporting activities and other activities as a common area. After buying all that land or house and occupying it in a sectional occupation arrangement, only to find that the seller of the property engages that public and common area that you had been promised when you signed your contract. This must also be brought into the purview of this law. That is so that we do not allow land-buying companies and property developers to take advantage of the people seeking to own property in the city. Many people have been left with a bad taste in their mouths. It is only the people who are having their houses demolished in areas like Mavoko that have been left with extremely bad experiences after they have spent colossal amounts of money. People living in some of these areas are already experiencing that terrible situation. I second."
