    "content": "That, in the 1970s Plot Number 122 23/VI/MN belonging to the natives of Bokole in Airport Ward, Changamwe Constituency, was taken by the Government for the purpose of constructing residential houses for the workers of Kenya Petroleum Refineries Limited (KPRL); That, this was supposed to be compensation to Kenya Petroleum Refineries Limited for a piece of land they had given Kenya Pipeline Corporation (KPC) for construction of their offices and Pump Station No.1 That, the land the Kenya Petroleum Refineries Limited had given to the KPC was about 20 acres. The land KPRL was given was about 100 acres, of which they are using only 16 acres leaving 84 acres idle to date. That, the lease for land which was left idle has expired and is due for renewal. That, Airport Ward has a population of 60,000 residents but does not have adequate social amenities, including schools, health facilities, markets and polytechnics due to unavailability of land. That, youth and women lack employment and the said piece of land could be used to construct a business park. This will go a long way in remedying the situation and establish a wholesale market which can serve residents and the neighbouring counties as well as decongest Nyali, Kongowea and Mombasa Town. That, lack of schools in Airport Ward has caused a lot of congestion in schools in the neighbouring wards, thus affecting the education standards in the constituency and the county at large.
