    "content": "It is important to realise that human beings are part of that ecosystem. The forest is the home of the Dorobo people who live there. We made a field visit to this region. This variation will basically enable the people who have lived in that ecosystem for almost the last 50 years to have a home. Whether we set this land aside for them or not, they will still live and utilise that forest and we will not have sustainable land use practice because they will not call that land their home because they do not have title deeds. They will not develop it. If this is regularised, we will have a sustainable land use practice. The relevant Government authorities like the Ministry of Land and Physical Planning, National Environment Management Authority (NEMA), Kenya Forest Service (KFS) and all the other stakeholders have looked at this issue critically and eventually made a decision to petition Parliament, so that we can vary those boundaries and enable those people to access that land and settle."
