"content": "Thank you, Hon. Deputy Speaker. I support Hon. Manje’s Petition. In Makueni, we had a similar experience when the railway was being constructed through the constituency. Currently, we have Thwake Dam where land owners are being compensated. There are serious challenges. As much as Hon. Manje would want it to be done next week, we first need to confirm that the money is in the Budget through the relevant Ministry. It is the relevant Ministry which works with the National Land Commission. There have been challenges of different nature, including corruption in compensation. Some people have been compensated for land which does not belong to them. Eventually, it ends up being a court case, which delays the process. I support the Petition and request Parliament to give direction on this matter so that the people who have not been compensated can receive their compensation within the law and in the right ways."
