Seeing that this is a matter of public interest, can anyone who receives it just upload it to one of the free file sharing websites?

@mkonomtupu, are u seriously telling me that there are banks that give out loans on letters of allotment?

If this is true, this is very serious?

I have little or no remorse for people who go buy land for speculative purposes as is the case with most Kenyans. Buy land in syokimau and wait for it to appreciate is as good as a pyramid scheme.

but I'm finding it very hard to believe that everyone in that area was silly enough to buy land in an area when they knew it was illegal. That is not logical.

The only logical conclusion is that they were hoodwinked by everyone from gov't, municipal offices, lands officials and even their own lawyers. That my friend is a dangerous recipe which begins the downward spiral of property prices in Kenya.

Who wants to buy my plot in Syokimau?

As far as I know, these plots DID'NT have genuine Titles at all!!

All the demolished house owners that were interviewed by media houses only spoke of approvals by Mavoko and provision of power by KPLC.

@JKmwatha&Others

do you have any proof of Title docs for any of the plots in question.

@Mainat

Spot on - if any one has a genuine Title issued from Ardhi, and/or genuine search certficate stamped by Lands registra they have a good case against the Govt for compesation.


Having said that, I still believe the Govt had an obligation to actively inform the public against buying/encroaching into this land.
Waiting as they did is in itself a form of abbetting - guilty of conspiracy of silence - in the court of public opinion.

@GGK..I would also like to see the report..sanity23@gmail.com

I hope this the web involved on these shoddy deals; lawyers, folks in ardhi house, city planners and anyone else will see a day in court. Justice for all. It's funny how human rights activists are no where to be found.
