President William Ruto has issued more than 33,000 title deeds to residents drawn from Lamu, Tana River, Kilifi, Mombasa, Kwale and Taita-Taveta counties.

Addressing residents at Mama Ngina Waterfront in Mombasa on his five-day development tour of the Coast region on Thursday said this is a major push to resolve long-standing land ownership disputes.

The titles covered parcels in Kilifi/Weru Ranch, Mwele Simakeni, Msabaha, Ka Dzandani, Wachu Kordentu and Ronge Juu Registration Unit in an exercise aimed at ending historical squatters’ challenges.
