The Ethics and Anti-Corruption Commission (EACC) has recovered an estimated Sh25 million from the sale of a public road reserve near the University of Nairobi Mombasa Campus. The Mombasa Municipality/Block XIX/305, situated on Machakos Road, was illegally and fraudulently transferred to the late Ezekiel Luyali in 1994. The Environment and Land Court declared the lease and survey plan that facilitated the transfer invalid and ordered the cancellation of related land records.
The court also issued a permanent injunction preventing any further dealings with the property. EACC's investigations revealed that the allocation violated proper legal procedures for closing and disposing of public roads and lacked necessary approvals from the Minister for Local Government. The commission emphasized the importance of adhering to the law when managing public land and urged public officers to protect public resources.
