The Sh490 million new digital Land Information Management System (Lims) is expected to be operational in all the 61 land registries countrywide before end of April. The registries were in February 2017 supplied with computers and connected to internet to pave way for implementation of digital transactions. But that first attempt was challenged by lawyers on grounds that their work as commissioners for oaths and agents of land transactions would be rendered redundant. However, the case was withdrawn and digital transactions started in Nairobi only. The system is not new per say as we had worked on another system but we realized there were problems with the software.
