The gazette notice says 3.937 acres yet when I measured the demolished area it is 4km by 2km approx 4,000 acres.
could there be other gazette notices ?
3,937 acres
What I suspect, and this is just my own hunch, is that somebody used the process of compulsory acquisition of land (the one done in 1982) to fiddle with the land. Most likely the land was actually acquired by the Govt for KAA but somebody changed the map that didnt reflect the actual size of the land acquired. It is also possible that even KAA does not have title that includes
all the land that was acquired by the Govt.
If Orengo is serious, he can dig out all this information and set out clearly the history of the land in question.
Just a thought on this
we were all originally "landless" and when as citizens we require a permanent place to stay on un occupied land we apply to the government for allocation of the land and get a tittle deed. So in a sense all the land belongs to the government.
Therefore even though the Govt may have bought the land in 1982 (also possible the money was allocated but not paid out
), the govt allocated the land to a new set of individuals in 1996.The same Govt was not aware there was a plan for the land and more so they did not know they needed to pay land rates to Mavoko.
The issuance of title deeds provides legitimacy and legality in my view.So Govt must compensate...
The fact that the Govt did not enforce the redesigned border after allocation means that the land is correctly in Mavoko althoug it can belong to KAA.
