The Nairobi County Government is set to launch a crackdown on land rate defaulters beginning on Monday, May 11, after the waiver period lapsed.
In a statement on Sunday, May 11, the Nairobi Governor, Johnson Sakaja, confirmed that the county has finalised its preparation to deploy enforcement personnel across all Nairobi sub-counties for the crackdown.
According to the county receiver of revenue, Tiras Njoroge, the enforcement teams will kickstart the crackdown in areas such as Westlands, Upper Hill, Kilimani, and Industrial Area before proceeding to other residential estates.
According to Njoroge, the officers will clamp down on properties, issue notices, and initiate legal proceedings for chronic defaulters, on all landowners who failed to meet their obligations before April 30, 2025.
