    "content": "THAT, the Pyrethrum Board Cooperative Society Ltd. alleged that it bought the land from a company called “Hyrax Developers Ltd. which was not in existence as per the search conducted at the National Land Registry; THAT, a further survey done on 13th August, 1999 indicated that the land in question was a public utility, and was held in trust for the residents of Nakuru Municipality, and the community needed to have been furnished with any changes or emerging issues, if any; THAT, the agreement between Pyrethrum Board Cooperative Society Limited and Hyrax Developers Company Ltd. dated 2nd October, 1998 regarding the purported transfer of the Nakuru Municipality Block 23/108, is null and void as the said land is a public utility and, therefore, any title issued in respect of the said agreement has been fraudulently obtained and contravenes Cap. 300 of the Laws of Kenya; THAT, the National Land Commission (NLC) issued a letter dated 8th October, 2016 to the effect that the land belongs to the school because it is was a public utility but two months later, rescinded its letter; THAT, efforts to resolve the matter with the NLC and other Government departments have been futile; and, THAT, the issues in respect of which this Petition is made are not pending before any court of law, constitutional or statutory body. Therefore, your humble petitioners pray that the National Assembly, through the Departmental Committee on Lands investigates the entire land transaction at the Office of the Commissioner of Lands, especially where it only took one day to change the said title deed to the purported owners, establish the legality of the companies involved and recommends that guilty persons are brought to book. And your petitioners will ever pray."
