Deputy Speaker, I rise to read Petition No.6 of 2025 regarding persistent harassment and unlawful eviction of people living on LR 176/3/Mainland North in Mwendo wa Panya Village, Mtepeni Ward of Kilifi South Constituency. I, the undersigned, on behalf of the concerned residents of Mwendo wa Panya Village in Mtepeni Ward, Kilifi South Constituency, draw the attention of the House on the following: THAT, Mwendo wa Panya Village is a pre-colonial village established on or about 1908 by one Athman Suleiman and developed to an acclaimed state haven where many locals who escaped from slave merchants would get safety. THAT, the land on which the village is located measures approximately 23.75 acres and is registered as L.R.No.176/111/MN. The parcel of land currently has a population of over 1000 people. THAT, the residents have been living in the village for over 100 years and have a community cemetery where they have been burying their dead ancestors, as evidenced by graveyards and shrines from where they perform their traditional rites. THAT, the village has a wide range of public utilities such as hospitals, schools, shopping centres and even farmlands on which residents practise subsistence farming as well as commercial cash crop farming of coconuts, mangoes, cashew nuts and oranges that have supported the livelihoods of residents for over 70 years.
