    "content": "Thank you, hon. Speaker for this opportunity. I congratulate my brother and neighbour for having brought this petition because we have been haggling over this issue. It appears that the County Government has ignored the cries of the leaders, we as Members of Parliament and also the residents of this constituency. His constituency; Igembe North, my constituency, Igembe Central and Tigania East are the constituencies affected. They are on the same corridor which has been earmarked for a game reserve. Whereas we have got Meru National Park, Kora and many others and animals are not even full there, we need land for our animals and not land for wild animals. The county leaders have ganged up and have already started training Kenya Police Reservists (KPRs) to man this particular land without the consent of the elected leaders, like me and my brothers M’Muthari and hon. Mpuru Aburi. So, hon. Speaker, the petition is very valid and it has come at the right time so that we can seek the degazettement of the same and also stop them from encroaching on that land. We are worried that there might be some private arrangements which are not going to benefit the public but individuals and that is our greatest fear. Thank you, hon. Speaker."
