Environment Cabinet Secretary Deborah Mulongo and Forestry Principal Secretary, Gitonga Mugambi, have been summoned to appear before Parliament over allegations of illegal allocation of land in Ngong Forest to private investors.
The National Assembly Committee on Environment, Forestry, and Mining has directed the duo to appear before it on June 19.
This came after Mulongo and Mugambi ignored similar summons three times in a row.
Chaired by MP Kiprop Kamuren, the committee is investigating alleged irregularities involving land within the Ngong Road Forest. The MPs are seeking to establish whether public land meant for conservation was illegally allocated to private developers, potentially endangering one of Nairobi's most significant green spaces.
