    "content": "despite the law that they have to wait until the lease expires. We need to actually un-tangle the law to ensure that one body has the absolute power to deal with these big leases. For example, Kilifi is one of the affected areas but before NLC says anything, you hear a lease has actually been renewed by the Ministry. That is where we start having a problem. The county government has not been consulted. No one else has been consulted but they say: “You see, the law says that at the expiry of the lease, the land reverts back to the county government and then now NLC can take over from there and renew or give back the land.” We need to go to the law and actually say that at the expiry or before expiry, NLC has the mandate to consult the county government on the same. That way, we will save these things. Otherwise, as the Petition says that Del Monte land is being renewed, yes they will renew it because the law is not clear on this matter. So, I urge that we do an amendment on the law. Thank you."
