    "content": "Order! Freeze, Senator Murkomen! You should not be conversing silently when the Speaker is on his feet. You have to freeze and that is the law. Now, I have to repeat a whole paragraph. (f) All the facilities in Nyahururu Town including healthcare facilities and schools continue to serve a large number of people from Nyandarua County while the revenue collected is utilized wholly by the County Government of Laikipia although the revenue is substantially generated by the people of Nyandarua. (g) By being placed in Laikipia County, the people of Nyahururu have been denied their right to proper presentation at the county and national government level as they identified themselves with Nyandarua County. However, administratively, they are placed in Laikipia County where the elected and nominated Members of the County Assembly do not represent their interests. (h) The people of Nyandarua have greatly suffered due to the annexing of Nyahururu Town to Laikipia without their consent. (i) For peace to prevail in Nyandarua and Laikipia, it is imperative that the boundary issue between Nyandarua and Laikipia counties is dealt with decisively by returning Nyahururu Town to Nyandarua County. (4) The petitioner petitions Parliament to; (a) expeditiously form an independent commission for the purpose of investigating the boundary dispute between Laikipia and Nyandarua counties aimed at considering the probable scenario of altering the same boundary and placing Nyahururu Town in Nyandarua County and in any case, returning the boundaries to their positions as they were before the year 1992. (d) Develop a timely mechanism for involvement of relevant stakeholders in arriving at a decision including the residents of Nyahururu Town, Nyandarua and Laikipia counties and their leaders and concerned constitutional bodies such as the Independent Electoral Boundaries Commission (IEBC). (5) The petition is signed by the petitioner, Jeremiah Kioni. Hon. Members, pursuant to Standing Order No.226, I will now allow comments on the same."
