The State Department of Lands, through the Busia County Lands Office, has distributed more than 300 land title deeds to residents of Bulemia and Magombe sub-locations in Bunyala sub-county.
The move comes after President William Ruto's directive last week during his development tour of the Lower Nzoia Irrigation Project.
Speaking to the press in her office on Wednesday, Busia County Land Registrar Violet Lamu said that a total of 382 title deeds had been issued to the deserving landowners. "We received 1031 title deeds from Nairobi when the President was here, where 982 were for Bulemia and 49 were for Magombe, and the President directed that they should be given to the owners.
Until today, 369 titles for Bulemia have been picked while 13 title deeds for Magombe have been given out too," said Lamu.
