"content": " Hon. Deputy Speaker, I rise to read Petition No.6 of 2025 regarding persistent harassment and unlawful eviction of people living on LR 176/3/Mainland North in Mwendo wa Panya Village, Mtepeni Ward of Kilifi South Constituency. I, the undersigned, on behalf of the concerned residents of Mwendo wa Panya Village in Mtepeni Ward, Kilifi South Constituency, draw the attention of the House on the following: THAT, Mwendo wa Panya Village is a pre-colonial village established on or about 1908 by one Athman Suleiman and developed to an acclaimed state haven where many locals who escaped from slave merchants would get safety. THAT, the land on which the village is located measures approximately 23.75 acres and is registered as L.R.No.176/111/MN. The parcel of land currently has a population of over 1000 people. THAT, the residents have been living in the village for over 100 years and have a community cemetery where they have been burying their dead ancestors, as evidenced by graveyards and shrines from where they perform their traditional rites. THAT, the village has a wide range of public utilities such as hospitals, schools, shopping centres and even farmlands on which residents practise subsistence farming as well as commercial cash crop farming of coconuts, mangoes, cashew nuts and oranges that have supported the livelihoods of residents for over 70 years. The electronic version of the Official Hansard Report is for information purposesonly. A certified version of this Report can be obtained from the Hansard Editor."

"content": "THAT, for many years since Independence, efforts by the residents to regularise ownership of the land for them to have security of tenure and realise full economic potential of their land have been unsuccessful. THAT, on 19th November 2018, three persons, namely, Mark Mwaura Mwangi, Charles K. Wanguhu and John Waweru Mwangi, went to the plot with hired people, harassed residents and demolished structures on the land, leaving the residents homeless; THAT, in November 2021, residents of the village were shocked to learn that the parcel of land which they inherited from their ancestors and have lived on for many years had been registered in the name of the three persons above, namely, Mark Mwaura Mwangi, Charles K. Wanguhu and John Waweru Mwangi, without their consent. THAT, the residents have no other known home other than Mwendo wa Panya village, hence they have nowhere to relocate to. THAT, efforts by the petitioners to seek assistance from the relevant Government agencies, including the Ministry of Lands, Public Works and Urban Development and the National Land Commission (NLC), to address the matter have been unsuccessful. Therefore, your humble petitioners pray that the National Assembly, through the Public Petitions Committee— 1. Inquire into the circumstances that led to the registration of parcel of land Ref:L.R.NO.176/111/MN in the name of the three persons, namely, Mark Mwaura Mwangi, Charles K. Wanguhu and John Waweru Mwangi, without the consent of the residents. 2. Recommend that the Ministry of Lands, Public Works and Urban Development, the National Land Commission and other relevant Government agencies settle the residents by facilitating the sub-division of parcel of land Ref.L.R.176/111/MN and issuance of certificates of title to the residents of Mwendo wa Panya Village. 3. Make any other recommendations it deems fit to secure the petitioners’ rights. And your petitioners will forever pray."
