    "content": " Thank you very much, Hon. Speaker. The Petition brought to the House by these landless squatters in a section of the Mt. Kenya Forest is very important. I agree with the Speaker that the Departmental Committee on Lands moves with speed to resolve the outstanding issue. These people have been landless ever since, possibly since the world was created. The history they have given is exactly what has happened to most Kenyans. Kenyans have been dispossessed of their land simply because they do not have the power to defend themselves. Clearly, this land was excised to settle these landless people. In between, you hear a developer came in and took over the land and it has been endless litigation from there. As a House, it is important that we take a decision to defend even those who cannot defend themselves. Such people include the ones of Ontulili Forest Block."
