The National Land Commission (NLC) is grappling with 10,500 cases filed against it. The cases are pending at various lands and environmental courts around the country.
NLC chairman Muhammad Swazuri said when his commission came into force in 2013, it found 9,000 pending land cases and successfully resolved 2,500 ones. “Of the cases that had remained since 1940s, we managed to resolve 2,500 within five years. With promulgation of the new Constitution, Kenyans have become more litigant,” he added.
