Muslims tussle over Sh1b propertiesA dispute over properties worth Sh1 billion is raging between two Muslim groups. The two groups - North Rift Youth Daawa Group and the Muslim Association - are laying claim on the properties that are spread across Eldoret Town and the upmarket Elgon View Estate. Daawa Group splintered from the Muslim Association last year, and proclaimed itself the legitimate overseer of the properties. North Rift Youth Daawa Group has sued the remaining faction of the Muslim Association, terming its claims illegal. Disposing properties In a sworn affidavit, Mr Ewaton argued that since 1990 the Muslim Association has been running the properties in an improper manner.
