NAIROBI: At least six public schools in Nairobi County may suffer the same fate that befell Lang'ata Road Primary School because they lack title deeds.

An Education task force appointed by the Nairobi county government found out that some of the schools have no ownership documents for their entire land while others had part of their land allegedly grabbed and fenced by unknown people.
