The national government has defended the Sh182,000 charge on squatters allocated land on Waitiki Farm in Likoni.

Recently, the Opposition opposed the charges, with Governor Hassan Joho saying beneficiaries of the farm should not pay a penny. A week ago, the governor said it was unfair for the Government to buy land for squatters elsewhere in the country but charge those on Waitiki land.
