In Laikipia County, situated on the Equator in the former Rift Valley Province, lies a unique community land known as Maiyanat.
In 2016, Maiyanat underwent a significant transformation when the Government enacted the Community Land Act, granting local communities legal ownership of their communal lands. However, despite this milestone, the region faces a pressing challenge: the invasion of cactus plants, which severely impacts the livelihoods of its residents.
