    "content": "Mr. Speaker, Sir, several issues arose in all the visits. The most crucial one was compensation of members of the public on the land that has been taken up by the construction of the road since inception, from Kibwezi and the rest of the way. Many of the members of the public have not been compensated up to date, despite several promises and visits by the Ministry concerned and the National Land Commission (NLC). This includes orders that have been made after members of the public came to this Senate upon the invitation of this Committee. No positive action has been taken by both the Ministry and the NLC to ensure that members of the public have been compensated for their land. We visited several homes and schools. We also visited a shopping centre called Ikutha, where we held a meeting together with a corresponding Committee. Story by story, tale-by-tale and episode by episode by the members of the public was the same; that their land had been taken, sometimes using the provincial administration to coerce members of the public to vacate their land."
