By CHARLES WANYOROMore by this AuthorThousands of beneficiaries of the 44,000-acre Mwea Settlement Scheme have moved to court to force Land Cabinet Secretary, Ms Farida Karoney, and her Interior counterpart, Mr Fred Matiang’i, to lift the suspension on land allocation. On Monday, about 1,000 title holders, led by their clan heads, gathered at the Embu law courts, where the case was expected to be filed. “The Cabinet Secretaries have no powers to suspend the process since the land parcels were allocated within the law and no law was broken. Hundreds then started streaming into the settlement scheme after learning that it would be allocated. Those who think that the process was not fair should come and tell us in court,” he said.
