The Mugabe chap you talkin bout lives in Umoja with lots of internet

The following is a brief history of the above property, from 1982 to date:
1) The property was originally part of L.R.No.12422 (“original land”) owned by a company called Joreth Limited.

2) On 30th March 1982, Joreth Limited transferred two portions of the original land namely L.R.Nos.12422/18 and 12422/19 to H.E. Daniel Toroitich Arap Moi CGH, MP (“H.E.”). The two portions measured 8.223 and 8.071 hectares respectively, total 16.294 hectares or approximately 40.246 acres.

3) Upon registration of the transfers of the two portions, H.E. was issued with two certificates of title numbers I.R.36414 and I.R. 36415.

4) On 26th March 1984, H.E. surrendered the two portions to the Government, in exchange for which the Government issued him with one title deed, being grant number I.R.38524.

5) Arising out of the surrender, the two portions were consolidated into one piece which was allocated a new number i.e.L.R.No.12597 (original numbers 12422/18 and 12422/19) measuring 16.295 hectares.

6) By a deed of transfer dated 10thNovember 1988, registered as Numbers I.R.38523/2 and 38524/2, entered into between H.E., and Mr. & Mrs. Arthur Magugu both parties being sellers and DPS International Limited as purchaser, H.E. transferred L.R.No.12597 (original numbers 12422/18 and 12422/19) while Mr. & Mrs. Magugu transferred L.R.No.12608 (original number 12422/17) to DPS International Limited.

7) By a deed of transfer dated 26th February 1990, registered as Numbers I.R.38523/5 and I.R.38524/5, DPS International Limited transferred L.R.Nos.12597 and 12608 to Insurance Company of East Africa Limited.

8) By a deed of transfer dated 4th May 1999, registered as Number I.R.38523/8 and I.R.38524/8, Insurance Company of East Africa Limited transferred L.R.Nos.12597 and 12608 to United States International University (“USIU”).

9) By an agreement dated 24th January 2001 entered into between USIU and Balozi Housing Co-operative Society Limited (“Balozi”) who owned an adjacent piece of land numbered 12422/6, it was agreed between the parties that the parties would excise approximately 10 acres from their respective lands and would exchange the excised portions.

10) USIU proceeded and subdivided their land, L.R.No.12597, into two portions which were numbered 12597/1 and 12597/2.

11) USIU retained L.R.No.12597/2 measuring 12.14 hectares (approximately 30 acres) and transferred to Balozi L.R.No.12597/1 measuring 4.150 hectares (approximately 10 acres) in exchange for which Balozi transferred to USIU L.R.No.12422/550 measuring 4.150 hectares (approximately 10.25 acres). The deed of exchange was duly registered in the registry of titles, and each of the parties were issued with new title deeds. USIU’s title is certificate of title number I.R.106361 dated 14th June 2007.

Yaani Mugabe himself is a big thief but even he is shocked at the thievery in Kenya.

The problem in Kenya is that every single public official is a thief.

Mugabe stole a lot but it appears he did extend that courtesy to every single govt official as is the case in Kenya.

And Moi retired 14 years ago yet the reverberations of his thievery are still having a massive impact. When will he feel like he has looted enough?

I am liking the credibility of USIU's paper trail. Buying the land from ICEA gives them a very solid case knowing the honesty and diligence of the Ndegwa's

This Moi fella really needs to give us some peace, he has not had enuf of F**king this country?

I also doubt the honesty of the buyer. A rule of thumb is that you never buy property under dispute.

Secondly, please clarify, did he buy 40 acres for 500M, so 12.5M per acre in Muthaiga!! or is the reporting dopey, I thought I first read somewhere that the dispute was over 8 Ha. or 20 acres which would be Sh 25M per acre and still way below market price

So the title of Kenya uno got lost and they only realised and reconstructed it last year in that prime area. Jokes!!!

i agree. so far usiu has done their pr job pretty well (one could say better than securing 'their' land) and we are yet to hear moi's side of story. and i believe there is more to this story than we are getting.

yet you will see wazuans advocating for land as a proper investment channel! There is no security in that business if top government officials and those in the ministry are involved in the thieving. If you must go into land selling, give yourself a short timeline and get out before you are conned. Hapa USIU is screwed, unless they appoint someone who's willing to give himself the full time job of fighting this case for the next 10-20 years
