PS Angote yesterday challenged the so called 'owners' to show titles to the parcels they claim to own. What most possess are share certificates. How does one build without a title. I think people have become too assuming and they want to push things through.

I sympathize with those who have lost property. GOK should not have waited for them to construct only for them to demolish.
However ALWAYS buy property that has Titles -hii mambo ya share certificate or allotment letters holds no water. Kenyans never learn. I hope no wazuan is banking on an "allotment letter" or "share certificate"

Just in the recent past, Kyangombe slum was demolished, and there were no outcries like what we are currently witnessing. But when the middle class has been touched, we call it impunity of the highest order by the government. The middle class are well educated, and as such should conduct due dilligence, especially when you want to pump in millions of shillings to an investment. Like @mukiha said, you may have bought a shamba, but without a deed, dont construct anything. In as much as we will complain bitterly against the government, somehow the blame will still fall on the individuals for making wrong assumptions. Like one blogger said, ignorance is no defense. Sorry to those who lost millions, it should be a lesson learnt by all.

For others in areas currently not affected, and you have a share certificate, allotment letter, etc, this is the time to conduct a thorough search and find out if the land is legit or not. Because it may not be the end of demolitions, just dont wait for it to happen to you.

If you saw you 3 year old take a bottle of poison and tells you that he will take it .Will you watch him take the poison without attempting to stop him?

What did the govt do to syokimauans?

Wacha akunywe tu ,Kuna mvua and the ground is soft , digging 6 feet down sio gumu.

im now very jittery about this syokimau saga...for peace of mind can somebody tell me if the DCA,near mlolongo side of syokimau will be affected.i bought approximately 4km from the kangarooz shopping centre.

@user good to hear that your dream house is still on. Also have friends who have been affected and in fact two of them had titles to their property, not certificates. So those busy shouting that there were no people with title deeds or certificate of lease have no clue what they are talking about and are merely buying into the government spin for their own individual reasons.

SYOKIMAU proper has no issues whatsoever!

The land that is mired in controversy is only adjacent to syokimau but NOT in Syokimau.

In actual fact the flattedned estates are/were called Ungani, Jumbo and Mlolongo Brothers.

Referring to them as Syokimau is misleading!

The Daily Nation story quoted below is 90% factual and truthful.

@stevecomptech, you seem to have joined this forum today and this looks like your first post.

I honestly expect something constructive and worth our time not the statement you posted.

What exactly are you asking and what makes you think we know where they are ?

The Land issue in Kenya is just too murky, led by Ardhi house itself. It is too painful to see people's sacrifice, hardwork, savings and investment turned into rubble within minutes. Worse no counselling at all for the familes affected!
