Mr Tobiko was summoned by MPs following his remarks over the pending demolition of houses built on grabbed land that was hived off Ngong forest. The lawmakers also want CS Tobiko to provide details of repossession efforts by the Kenya Forest Service (KFS) for the encroachment of forest land in the country and the current status. The issue of Ngong Forest is an emotive one and we want to have a session with him to address all the pending issues. Mr Tobiko was invited after residents of Royal Park, Sun Valley I and II, Lang’ata Gardens, Langa’ta View Gardens and Forest Edge estates petitioned parliament urging the House to instruct CS Tobiko to follow the law and get proper information from the Land ministry regarding Ngong Forest. Minority Leader John Mbadi warned CS Tobiko against reckless statements that threaten the lives of innocent Kenyans, who innocently bought land in the area.
