A parliamentary committee has recommended that the Treasury compulsorily acquire Uchumi Supermarkets land on Langata Road worth an estimated Sh2 billion and pay off UBA Bank debt of Sh162 million.

The National Assembly’s Finance and National Planning Committee has directed that the Treasury undertake a fresh valuation to ascertain the worth of the land.
