By LILLIAN MUTAVIMore by this AuthorMembers of Embakasi ranching company have warned Nairobi Governor Evans Kidero to stay away from its activities following his announcement that he will issue 8,000 title deeds for the land in three weeks. Speaking to the Nation, the chairperson of the ranch shareholders forum Sammy Kungu, urged the President not to be dragged into the disputed land by issuing title deeds to illegal owners. Dr Kidero said that together with President Uhuru Kenyatta, they will be issuing 8,000 title deeds out of the 19,000 titles in the ranch. He said that the land which had between 18,000 and 24,000 acres could not have expanded its shareholders to 19,000 saying that the land does not belong to the directors but only shareholders with certificates. Mr Kungu said that the Embakasi ranch was subdivided in 1980 and since then the land has been having new owners every fortnight.
