    "content": "(d) take-over and/or occupation of the adjacent group ranches without consent, most of which are communal group ranches and owned; and, (e) property of residents be subjected to taxes and/or controls, despite the absence of consent and/or approval through public participation, which is mandatory. (5) THAT, relevant agencies like the National Land Commission, group ranch leaders, elders, herders and livestock traders have not been involved nor has their opinion been sought regarding this matter, which is contrary to the requirements of the Constitution of Kenya, 2010; (6) THAT, implementation of Municipality programmes will likely have huge financial implications on residents of the county, thereby loading over to them unnecessary burdens; (7) THAT, the residents’ right place to raise this Petition is the Senate because it represents counties and serves to protect the interests of counties and their governments, which interests have been infringed on. (8) THAT, the consequence of the purported declaration of the municipality will be a restriction to residents’ rights, including property rights and the risk of annexation of property, imposition of levies for use and restriction on use, including imposition of criminal sanctions. NOW THEREFORE, your humble petitioners pray that the Senate conducts an inquiry into the review of Maralal Town boundaries and the subsequent gazettment of the town as a municipality in Samburu County and makes appropriate recommendations.” The Petition is dated 12th July, 2018. Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir."
