    "content": "I would like to draw the attention of the House to certain points. One, before the Departmental Committee on Lands decided to get involved in this matter, the National Land Commission (NLC) had addressed itself to it. Within the Commission, various commissioners are assigned various counties. Kilifi County is assigned to the Vice-Chair of the Commission. We know this because we oversee them and they make presentations of this nature to us. The Vice-Chair, in her capacity as the one in charge of that county, had started carrying out investigations. After a short period of time during that investigation, the Chairman of the Commission decided, without a meeting of the Commission, to step her down and take over the investigations by himself with one land officer called Mburugu. They did this to the exclusion of the entire Commission. They did not carry out any analysis or review of any grant, or any investigations. They decided to issue a letter to the County Government of Kilifi. We do not know and it was not proven to us why he decided to write to the county government. Nonetheless, he wrote and declared that the land in question legally and lawfully belongs to Mombasa Cement. He said in that letter that he relied on the documents in their possession.
