Coastal leaders in Kenya have expressed support for the government's aggressive efforts to address the land squatter problem by issuing free title deeds to landless citizens. President William Ruto recently launched the second phase of the national titling programme, distributing 300,000 title deeds in Mombasa, Kwale, Kilifi, Lamu, Taita Taveta, and Tana River counties as part of a broader plan to distribute 500,000 land ownership documents.
Mombasa politician and parliamentary aspirant Said Abdalla hailed the initiative, stating that it will unlock economic wealth, empower local communities, and provide residents with permanent land security and access to loans for development projects. Abdalla emphasized that the large-scale issuance of title deeds marks a significant step in restoring land ownership security to residents who have long lived on ancestral and settlement land without formal documentation.
