    "content": "Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I have listened to the petition before the House with a lot of interest. You will recall that when we brought the Constitution, 2010, we set up the National Land Commission (NLC) to deal with issues that this petition is raising; to remedy the injustices in the land holding and land tenure system as well as help the helpless people who have been dispossessed of land. This Petition addresses one of those issues where group ranches which are in arid and semi-arid land (ASAL) areas, therefore, with very fragile ecosystems have been recklessly subdivided to a level that they have got no economic value to the members. It is worse to hear, mentioned, that some of the beneficiaries of these fraudulent transactions are former Members of Parliament representing the very people whose interest they are supposed to have protected."
