The Kenya National Highways Authority (KeNHA) has announced plans to commence formal compensation hearings for land acquired for the expansion of the Kenya-South Sudan road link, specifically the Kitale-Morpus road.
The Authority, through the National Lands Commission, in a notice dated Friday, July 19, announced that the compensation hearings would be conducted at designated locations within Trans Nzoia and West Pokot Counties.
As part of the project, the compensation hearing forms a key legal step to ensure landowners are heard and fairly compensated before construction begins. "The National Land Commission, on behalf of KeNHA, gives notice that an inquiry will be held to hear claims to compensation from interested parties in land required for the construction of the Kenya-South Sudan Road Link - Kitale-Morpus Road upgrading," read part of the notice.
