In an interview with the Nation, Kenya Union of Post Primary Education Teachers Laikipia branch Executive Secretary Ndung’u Wangenye said the institutions were yet to acquire the crucial documents, sparking fears of encroachment by developers. By ERIC MATARAMore by this AuthorA teachers’ union is up in arms over delayed issuance of title deeds to more than 100 primary and secondary public schools in Laikipia County. Mr Wangenye said despite a Presidential directive to the ministry of Lands nearly two years ago to ensure the institutions acquire title deeds, they are yet to get the documents. Mr Wangenye accused the county government of Laikipia for derailing the process, saying they are sluggish in formalizing the issuance of the title deeds to help them secure their lands. According to Mr Wangenye lack of title deeds may lead to them being deregistered as well as missing a chance of serving as national examination centres.
