Kenyans have endured long waits of up to over 25 years to get land issues, including the issuance of title deeds and completed land transfers, resolved.
This is according to a report by the Commission on Administrative Justice (CAJ), commonly referred to as the Ombudsman, on complaints it received from Kenyans regarding land administration in the country.
The Ombudsman revealed that the Ministry of Lands accounted for the second-highest number of complaints, representing seven per cent of all complaints it received.
Since 2019, the Commission has received 392 complaints against the State Department for Lands and Physical Planning, of which 186 have been resolved while 206 were pending.
