Mombasa Governor Abdulswamad Shariff Nassir has announced a bold initiative aimed at recovering billions in outstanding county debts to finance critical infrastructure and development projects in the County.

Speaking during a press briefing at the Mombasa Water Supply and Sanitation Company Limited (MOWASSCO) offices, the Governor outlined a series of measures targeting non-compliant property owners, particularly those with unpaid land rates.

One of the central issues raised was the status of a MOWASSCO property that had previously been damaged by fire.

Currently under the Coast Water Authority, the property is scheduled for transfer to the County Government.
