So whose position btwn Uhurus and Railas do you support.
Uhuru says not paying.
Raila says pay up!
Cant have your cake and eat it.

Mr. Ibrahim Mwathane, on his article on page 13 of Nation on 24th December 2009, brings out another angle to this scenario altogether.

Can Mutukufu Rais make an Executive Order repossessing Mau like he did Kenyatta International Conference Center from Kenya African National Union?

@VVS,
The issue here is not who is supporting what.It is morally wrong to compensate this Mbutas.As Ma-he-goat is won't to say,pay them in 3020 or ask Baba Simama (I always thought the boy was not standing... )to make an executive order.

Kadonye thats a lie. KICC (as aemathenge illustrated) is worth more than the 2billion being talked about here. The same Mbuta were kicked out by the government and run to court, but what has happened so far? Kick them out and start reforesting, let the mbuta waste time in court as the trees grow. By the time they are being heard some of us omena may have become mbuta and will place new roadblocks.

@sparkly... I stand to be corrected but Mau was initially gazetted land that had to be de-gazetted as a forest land before title deeds were issued. Part of the land was actually meant for the Ogiek jamaaz before it was stolen frm them. Too many legal requirements had to be followed to allow degazettement of the forest from a protectd land gazetted as a forest, change of user, to finally title deeds to be issued in favour of Moi and the creme de creme of his govt.of the time. Wako was not aware/ facilitating all this time as the govt legal adviser when Mau land was being dished out like confetti to a good chunk of the entire govt?
Even the then Commish of Lands (that Gachanja fellow?)and the MP for Lands must answer qstns of abuse of office for allowing that to happen under their watch. 'Following orders from above' is no longer an excuse since the Nuremberg Trials if the law is unjust and you have a personal responsibility as well for your actions even if following orders.

@kadonye - can't pay, won't pay, shouldn't pay. Yes, the sanctity of a title deed is final and should be legally unassailable but this applies only to a title deed that has been legally acquired in a transparent and legal manner and the owner therefore has inherited a good and clear title to the document. Not same for the Mau ones.
