    "content": " Thank you, Hon. Speaker. Indeed, this is a very important Petition. We are aware that even the Governor of Nandi, who is now in custody, was on a similar matter. We need some clarity in terms of the expiry of this lease. Who should be given preference? My colleague has cited that particular section of consultation. I do not think it is taking place. We know there are a lot of historical injustices in this country and it is under the function of the NLC. It is unfortunate we have not finalised on the issue of NLC. We are praying that the process is expedited so that we can have the commission in place. I am aware of some farmers from Trans Nzoia who, up to now, have not even got their title deeds because we do not have commissioners in NLC. It is a very critical Petition. We call upon the Departmental Committee on Lands to move with speed on this matter and not just look at Thika and Kiambu. They should also look at the side of Trans Nzoia, Uasin Gishu and Nandi County where we have cases of land leases particularly with multi-nationals. I thank you, Hon. Speaker."
