State Department for Housing and Urban Development Principal Secretary Charles Hinga has confirmed that a Kenyan can purchase multiple houses in the Affordable Housing Programme.

However, individuals will have to provide details of the beneficiary to be entered into the system.

This comes after sentiments emerged questioning whether it was legal for an individual to purchase multiple affordable houses despite the one-ID-one-house policy.

The complaints were raised following Pastor James Ng'ang'a's announcement on Wednesday that he would purchase 100 housing units from the programme for the less fortunate. "The rules of this is that one ID one house, you cannot buy one hundred units, you cannot," A Kenyan challenged PS Hinga.
