Out of curiosity would we be having any Wazuan affected?We need to give moral support incase there is one.

We are living in the digital age, where every parcel of land should be digitized with all it's entitlements, and database linked from Ardhi House to all City/Municipal/town Councils Lands and Planning Departments. The era of allocating and selling land to more than two people, selling disputed land should be long gone.

Could Wazuans please read the two draft Land Bills and make comments: May be your and my comment will amount to something in the final Bill. We have to fight this monster, for this country to be a better place to buy, build, and bring up families.

Public Notice
Ministry of Lands is implementing the Constitution of Kenya 2010 through, among others, preparation of draft legislations on land. The Ministry is committed to facilitating participation of the people of Kenya in this process.

In this regard, we wish to notify members of the public that the Ministry, in consultation with stakeholders, has prepared two draft bills to meet provisions of Article 68 of the Constitution of Kenya 2010. These are: -

Draft Land Bill – to revise, consolidate and rationalize land laws; to provide for the sustainable administration and management of land and land-based resources and for connected purposes.

The two draft Bills can be downloaded from the Ministry of Lands’ Website http://www.ardhi.go.ke/ >Downloads> DRAFT LAND BILLS >Lands Bill 24th October 2011 and Land Registration Bill 24th October 2011. All members of the public are invited to visit the website, read the draft Bills and forward comments to Kenya Law Reform Commission, Attorney General and Commission for Implementation of the Constitution.

I think there is more to the story here..where does the property block in question lie ?
1.Does the land lie in Machakos County (Mavoko) or in Nairobi county ? is it an attempt to change a county boundary?

2.If the boundary is in question where do the constitutional boundaries lie.?

3.Every public document and map I can find online(including google) indicates the Unjum rectangle (Ungani,Jumbo ,Mloloongo) is in Machakos county.

4.My concern is the disregard/ impunity of the executive towards the Judiciary. Pending Case court..or are they in cahoots.

5.All Titles and searches are issued in Nairobi, if we can not trust the title for the land we sleep in soon our faith in the Shilling we trade in falters as its implied it can change overnight

6.KAA may have issued notices, but how many people know their block numbers on the title? A law should be introduced that any advert for evacuation must include a map.


I think we need a jicho pevu on this.."the matter is that today it was syokimau , in 8 yrs time the next government will say the title for your land in CBD was issued illegally ,then bring down the hse and no compensation.

I shudder at the thought..

My heart goes out to the Wazuans directly affected; and to all in general. I was there and just couldnt stay on to watch that shameful heartless exercise. I cannot begin to imagine how it might feel like.

There was to be a court ruling today. Anyone heard how it has gone? Why didnt KAA and cabinet wait for this ruling? Are Kenyans now supposed to have confidence in this investigation?

All what has happened is a result of corruption and fraud. If we can fight fraud in Kenya we will safe others from similar calamity. My sympathy to the affected families, it will take years to recover the loss. Now as an investor in NSE, I wonder how this 'national' calamity is going to affect my trades, are we going to see more 'syokimau' victims dispose of their stocks at NSE in order to raise money for rent now that their status have been degraded back to being tenants? Sorry for the blantness of my post but its a man eat man society

Surely, the whole system is murky. Two maps from the same government. The lawyers are also found in this dirty atmosphere; and they aren't that clean...can be compromised!!!!Who do you believe or rely on....We need DIVINE intervention!!!

Mutito MP Kiema Kilonzo accused the government of applying the law selectively, citing buildings he said were built irregularly along Mombasa road by billionaires but secured protection from the State.

“Are there two sets of the law? One for the poor and one for the rich?” the MP posed.

Just the other day multinationals build buildings illegally along Mombasa road…the government led by the Prime Minister met the billionaires and agreed they are going to spare the multinationals,” he said.

“...yet here we have poor people with legal documents approved by City commission, their property is being destroyed and the government has not even had a courtesy meeting with them just as it had with the billionaires in the PM’s office over tea and champagne , shame on you…”he said.
