    "content": "Indeed, I am very conversant with the matter at hand because the Ontulili area is in Buuri Constituency. I know for a fact that the Committee on Lands visited the area in 2018 and gave recommendations as you have read. There are about two groups of squatters; the Ontulili Forest squatters and the Kiambogo Farmers’ Association. They are squatters in this area. From what you have read to us, the complication that arose after the 2018 visit by the Committee on Lands was caused by the NLC. Hon. Speaker, according to the courts, the NLC was supposed to call for arbitration and involve the two parties; the investor and the squatters. But instead of calling the squatters, they also called all the purchasers of those pieces of land and the petitioners to come to this House. It is the best thing because this is the only place where justice can be given to all these squatters. I support this Petition and ask the Public Petitions Committee to give it the attention it deserves so that these squatters can enjoy their civil rights."
