Kahawa West residents on track to get title deeds after 38-year wait

As early as 6am on Thursday, a long queue had formed at Mahiga Primary School in Kahawa West, winding down the entrance into the school and spilling outside onto the road.

Owners of parcels of land situated within the estate flooded the school in anticipation of the registration process that would allow them get land title deeds, after 38 years of waiting. All they had as proof of ownership of their land were allotment letters from the defunct Nairobi City Council.
