    "content": " Thank you, Hon. Speaker. I have a public Petition by the residents of Laikipia West Constituency, Muhotetu Block 4 (Mukurweini) on parcels of land allocated to the community. I, the undersigned, on behalf of the residents of Laikipia West Constituency, draw the attention of the House to the following: THAT, aware that Gituamba/Muhotetu Block 4 (LR No. 9862) (Mukurweini) area is located in Laikipia West Constituency; THAT, the residents of Gituamba/Muhotetu Block 4 (Mukurweini) were allocated parcels of land and some were issued with title deeds in 2002; THAT, many other parcels of land have had their titles not issued to date; THAT, in subsequent times, the residents have established that there are many cases of double allocation and that this has raised tension among the residents of the area; THAT, although some residents had titles issued to them, the land office records indicate that there were no mutations that were done on that parcel of land; THAT, in many instances, the title acreage on paper is not matching with the actual ground measurements therefore indicating a conflict of what is in the land office records, ownership titles and realities on the ground; THAT, efforts to resolve this matter through the District Adjudication Office have been futile; THAT, the matter in respect of which this Petition is made is not pending before any court of law. THEREFORE, your humble Petitioners pray that the National Assembly, through the Departmental Committee on Lands: (i) Makes appropriate recommendations and ensure that the plight of the Petitioners is addressed. (ii) Makes any other order or direction that it deems fit in the circumstances of the case, and The electronic version of the Official Hansard Report is for information purposes only. Acertified version of this Report can be obtained from the Hansard Editor."
