The residents of Laikipia North Sub County have appealed to President William Ruto to waive accrued land rates which have ballooned due to persistent drought experienced in the area for the last two years.

The Chairman of Suguta Ex-P&D Ranch Julius Lesuuda noted that the government has been losing the much needed revenue due to payment hurdles over the years with most of the land allottees not able to make any payments as their filling system is not automated.
