[File, Standard]More than 100 families from Tsauni village in Kinango, Kwale County, have urged the government to help them reclaim the land they claim was grabbed by powerful individuals. They accused the local administration and officials in the Ministry of Lands of colluding with some entities to take away their ancestral land where they have lived for more than 100 years. "A date was set and we were directed that adjudication officials and surveyors would survey and demarcate the land," said Mwadzegele. "We told them the adjudication process was done in favour of non-deserving people but the officers did not want to listen to us. Kwale County Land Management Coordinator Kennedy Njenga promised to follow up the matter, saying the adjudication process was still ongoing in the area.
