    "content": "I understand where the people of Mavoko are coming from when they say this was their land. We gave you the land to do business because you would bring some economic gain for our people. This land was sold to innocent Kenyans. The county government gave approval for construction of houses. The services were provided by the Kenya Power and the Ministry of Water, Sanitation and Irrigation. The title deeds were provided by the Ministry of Lands, Housing and Urban Planning, and then all of a sudden, you wake up one morning and the land is gone. With all those 4,000 acres of land that the East African Portland Cement Company has, could they not have figured out how to compensate the people or give them 200 or 300 acres of land? And tell them that since we have survived and made profits out of this land, we will give you this piece of land so as to end this court battle. The land in Nairobi which we are talking about is the Kirima’s. I really would like the Government to seriously look at the Ndung’u Report."
