    "content": "That, Changamwe Constituency is one of the 60 constituencies in the Republic selected to benefit from the national Government’s plan to establish new technical, vocational and educational training projects, and that these projects may not commence due to lack of public land for the same. Noting that money has been set aside for construction of the TIVET by the national Government to the tune of Kshs40 million and the Constituency Development Fund (CDF) is to contribute Kshs10 million for the construction of the polytechnic. That, Changamwe CDF has allocated Kshs40 million for the construction of primary and secondary schools, libraries, conference halls, stadia and other social amenities, but this is not possible to implement due to unavailability of land. That, numerous attempts by the previous owners to get back their parcels of land have been futile, and that the matter in respect of which this Petition is presented is not pending before any court of law or tribunal. Therefore, your humble petitioners pray that the National Assembly, through the Departmental Committee on Lands, intervenes to have the Government discontinue any further leasing or re-allocation of the same parcels of land and the parcels be allocated for public use by Changamwe residents. Your petitioners will ever pray. This petition is presented by hon. Omari Mwinyi Shimbwa, MP, Changamwe Constituency, son of a fisherman. The petition is signed by so many residents of Changamwe Constituency. They are so many that I cannot even count them. Hon. Speaker, I wish to have your indulgence to give a brief overview of the situation in Changamwe."
