At least 10,000 residents of Kanana in Kwale will be relocated to pave way for cane farming by the Kwale International Sugar Company Limited. The more than 600 families will be moved to Kidimu after the government said it owns the over 6,000 acres. However, residents have protested the move, saying they legally own the land, and they were issued with allotment letters during President Mwai Kibaki’s regime awaiting title deeds. She questioned the decision by the government and how the land is under the sugar farm. Kinyasi also said the government did not tell them why the documents they possess are "fake".
