    "content": "Thank you, Hon. Speaker. I rise to support the Petition by Hon. M’eruaki on the military serviceman. I would appeal to the Committee to make sure that there is fairness in that process. However, my concern is more on the Petition on the Moi Ndabi Scheme in Naivasha, which is bordering Narok. I take great exception to what the Member for Narok West, Hon. Patrick Ntutu, has said. That, indeed, there are people in Nairobi purporting to own that land. I want to state to the Committee which will be in charge of this Petition that, indeed, there is a problem in Moi Ndabi, Maela and other land settlement schemes, including Utheri wa Lari and Nyakinyua in Naivasha. We are elected to this House to represent constituencies and not communities. I represent a constituency that is named after a community, but I cannot rise to speak for and on behalf of Kikuyus. I have heard on two instances the two Members speak about the Maasai community, forgetting that those settlement schemes brought in other communities. I am particularly keen on those settlement schemes, especially those near Naivasha because there are very many people from Kiambu County who have bought land there. They formed land-buying companies to buy land in all those settlement schemes, including Moi Ndabi. Therefore, this is not a matter to do"
