    "content": "THAT on 2nd June 1993, Mr P.N. Mogire, on behalf of the Commissioner of Lands, gave a final sub-divisional approval of LR No. 5423/2 (433.02 hectares) and excised 96.88 hectares, placing the new title number of the block for the community as LR No.5423/4; THAT, on 2nd July 1993, Gazette Legal Notice No.173 was published, where Siret Tea Company Limited transferred LR No.5423/2 of 1,070 acres and LR No.6053 of 440 acres among others; THAT, on 24th June 1994, Block LR No.5423/2 was transferred from Siret Tea Company Limited to Kakuzi Limited and the same day the same parcel of land was allegedly transferred illegally from Kakuzi Limited to a private developer by the name Tinderet Development Trust Company; THAT, the said Tinderet Development Trust Company Limited is a non- existent company as per the response letter from the Registrar of Companies dated 6th August 2015, which then makes the transfer of the community land to a phantom company null and void; THAT, Kakuzi Limited is yet to declare the status of LR No. 6053 which they had expressly intended as a company to unequivocally transfer to the community vide a letter dated 24th March 1993. THAT, the matter presented in this petition is not pending before any court of law or any constitutional or legal body. Therefore, your humble petitioners pray that the National Assembly through the Public Petitions Committee– 1. Engage the Ministry of Lands, Public Works, Housing and Urban Development and other relevant authorities with a view to investigating the alleged irregular and illegal acquisition of Kapkakaron Farm LR. No 5423/2 and LR. 6053 by Tinderet Development Trust Company. 2. Recommend that squatters who have settled for more than 50 years in Kapkakaron Farm LR. No 5423/2 and LR. 6053 be given priority during the settlement of residents in the area. 3. Recommend investigations into the conduct of land settlement officers for failing to adhere to the provisions of the Land Act, 2012 and the Leadership and Integrity Act in the course of their duties while settling residents, and that appropriate disciplinary action be taken. 4. Make any other recommendation or action it deems fit in addressing the plight of the petitioners. And your petitioners will ever pray. Thank you, Hon. Speaker."
