    "content": " Thank you, Hon. Deputy Speaker. I am happy to present a Petition regarding dispossession of ancestral land. I, the undersigned, on behalf of the residents of Sabaki Ward of Magarini Constituency, draw the attention of the House to the following: THAT, before Independence, residents of Sabaki Ward were forcefully evicted from their ancestral land and relocated by the colonial Government to pave way for the establishment of the Kisima Farm owned by a foreign national; THAT, the forceful eviction and subsequent relocation was done without any compensation despite the abandoned farms being rich in cash crops like cashew nut trees, coconut trees, mango trees, among others; THAT, after Independence, the Kenyan Government repossessed Kisima Farm, including the land and vested it to the Agricultural Development Corporation (ADC) - a State corporation - and later renamed it Sabaki Farm; 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."
