Ruto allied MPs now want Ndung’u Land Report made public to iron out land injustices

The MPs said the implementation of the report’s recommendations will sort out the sticky land issues that have dodged Kenyans for eons. 

The MPs argued that if the Government was committed to revisiting the country’s historical injustices, Kenya’s land issue should to top priority. 

They were speaking on Sunday at the Burhani Grounds in Mvita Constituency where the deputy president engaged the Mombasa County community leaders.

Those who spoke about land included Khatib Mwashetani (Lunga Lunga), Aisha Jumwa (Malindi), Mohamed Ali (Nyali), Juma Wario (Tana River) and former Mombasa Senator Hassan Omar.

The outspoken legislator Jumwa argued that Kenyans are now tired of political conmanship.

“They have been exploiting the poor and stealing their land. This must stop,” she said.

Ms Jumwa said ODM Leader Raila Odinga had betrayed the region, especially after the Handshake.

She claimed that the ODM leader had frustrated every effort that would have transformed the lives of the people of the Coastal Region.

“He pretends that he is not in Government. Yet, he prides himself of being the President’s adviser. We will not vote for Mr Odinga.”

Lunga Lunga legislator Mwashetani said the tricks used by the ODM chief to win the region’s political support during electioneering periods are now over.

“We must sort out historical injustices in our country forever. That is why we have an economic charter with DP Ruto that will address this problem,” he explained.

Former Mombasa Senator who was in attendance downplayed claims that Raila is a liberation hero.

“He is not but a political con. He just attempted to mutilate our Constitution through BBI,” he said.

The former Mombasa Senator said UDA will ensure the “return of people’s resources to its legal owners”.

Urging the people of Coast Region to shun leaders who exploit their problems only during the electioneering problem, Kikuyu MP Kimani Ichung’wah said Raila is a project of the rich people who exploit the poor.

On his part DP Ruto asked leaders to work towards serving the interests of the people.

He urged Kenyans to rally behind an issues-based political formation that will unite the country and kill tribalism.
