The government is facing a herculean task to convince residents of Bondo to accept the planned construction of a Sh500 billion nuclear plant in the area.
The project was first rejected by Kilifi residents before the government shifted its attention to Bondo area as the latest site for the project.
However, the latest push has also run into headwinds after residents of Lenya staged protests to compel the government to transfer the project elsewhere, raising concerns over possible displacement, environmental risks and alleged intimidation by leaders supporting the project.
Speaking during a press conference held on Thursday, the residents said they were worried that Project Affected Persons (PAPs) could be displaced from their ancestral land if the project proceeds.
