    "content": "Hon. Speaker, I stand to support the Petition. I am from Trans Nzoia. The most worrying thing is that this is being done behind closed doors. As leaders from Trans Nzoia County, and there are five of us, we have not been involved. I, therefore, support the idea by hon. Pukose. The audit should be done as soon as possible. I have also been trying to get information, which has been very scanty. I know for sure that the deal is suspect. If, indeed, what hon. Pukose has stated is true, that the land was purchased in April for only Kshs23 million and after two months, it was sold at Kshs175 million, there is much more than meets the eye. There is nothing to worry about. The county government should not worry. We just want to find the truth. If it is true that the land has appreciated to that extent, then we have no problem. I know the property, which is in Saboti Constituency, is a condemned. The Ministry of Public Works looked at the piece of land and found that it was not worth that much. It was condemned. The purchase amount is enough to expand Kitale and Mount Elgon district hospitals. There is much more than meets the eye. I support the Petition and ask the Departmental Committee on Finance, Planning and Trade to look into this as fast as possible, so that an audit can be carried out to satisfy the people of Trans Nzoia.
