According to land activist Anthony Otiende, ''the commission has failed not only on generating land policy but also on initiating investigations on complaints presented". Pursuant to article 67(2) of the 2010 Constitution, one of the Commission's core function was to initiate investigations, on its own initiative or on complaint, into present or historical land injustices and recommend appropriate redress. As if that is not enough, Swazuri claimed the verdict on his achievement lies with the Kenyan people whom he served.The land commission has been marred with corruption accusations ranging from Ruaraka land saga, Standard Gauge Railway land compensation which saw six persons arrested among them Muhammad Swazuri. With contrasting opinions of whether the former land commission delivered or not, what remains a hard nut to crack, is a number of incomplete assignments that the next commissioners will inherit. Among them Ruaraka land saga, Standard Gauge Railway land compensations, processing title deeds for public primary schools as well as managing land disputes.
