Residents of Ontulili in Timau, Meru County, want the Government to move with speed and survey 2,400 acres of land claimed by the late Jackson Angaine’s family after the National Land Commission (NLC) ruled it is their property.
The 1,435 squatters petitioned NLC, claiming they had been allocated the land by founding President Jomo Kenyatta in 1975, but that the late powerful minister “grabbed it”.
