Court grants Sacco ownership of Sh10m Donholm landThe Environment and Land court has ruled that a Sacco linked to Green span estate developer are the owners of a Donholm land valued over Sh10million. “The suit property was private land and ceased to exist when it was subdivided into two blocks, noting that Alfajiri Self Help Group cannot lay claim to private property it never owned,” Bor said. Sauti Sacco Society in 2007 subdivided the land, LR NAIROBI/BLOCK 82/4264, into two blocks where it sold to Greenspan Developers Limited a portion measuring 50 acres and kept 30 acres. The judge noted that the land was prior to Sauti Sacco owned by Continental developers, and therefore at no time did Alfajiri take ownership of the land. But in its defence, Sauti Sacco argued that Alfajiri had in 2013 also filed a petition with the National Land Commission (NLC) over the same land.
