    "content": "affected by these demolitions are the most vulnerable in our society and they deserve protection from the Government. Mr. Speaker Sir, in view of the above, I would like to request the Chairperson, in his response, to address the following:- (1) Give us a detailed report explaining the circumstances that have led to eviction of the residents of Kariobangi Sewerage Area in Kariobangi North Ward, because we know about the other demolitions that are being planned. (2) Give a report on all the land in Nairobi City County that is officially mapped as public land and road reserves and tell us where else these people intend to demolish so that we take care of our people. (3) Outline the mechanisms that have been put in place to ensure human rights of innocent residents are not infringed upon during such exercises. (4) Give the status of any legal action taken to charge Government officials involved in illegal allocation of public land in Nairobi City County. (5) Explain how the Government is going to compensate the affected residents, take care, and cushion them. Mr. Speaker, Sir, the Chair should note that today the Government announced that there are 29 COVID-19 cases just five kilometres from where those people have been evicted. We need to know the urgency of leaving people out in the cold at a time when they have been restricted because they cannot even go to their rural homes if they want to leave Nairobi. Mr. Speaker, Sir, kindly direct that we get a response in a week."
