Demonstrators on Saturday ejected a private developer who allegedly grabbed hospital land in Highridge, Nairobi. The land housed a dispensary which was run down before the property was allegedly sold to a developer. The developer demolished it and took over the land but Nairobi Governor Mike Sonko repossessed it in August last year. Sonko had warned that he will not relent in protecting public land and told grabbers to surrender the parcels or risk being evicted. Residents said they have been suffering and forced to seek treatment in Mbagathi and Kenyatta National Hospital because there is no nearby public dispensary.
