    "content": "I come from Machakos County and the county Government of Machakos was the first county government in the country to invite investors to invest there. We are also the first county government to purport to be coming up with a new city. The most interesting thing is that what was being given as motivation and where that city is supposed to be built is community land. It is important for the county governments to understand that the interests of the communities must at all times be taken into consideration when they start talking about investments. My understanding of an investor is someone who wants to put in money, so that they can get returns. If we are going to create a situation where people will be given land for free, then what are they investing? People need to understand. If you want to invest, be ready to buy land, build on it and then equip it accordingly. I noticed in a recent newspaper an advertisement that the NLC has given authority to the county government to give out land for free."
