Residents of the Borabu Settlement Scheme in Nyamira County are challenging the government's claims over 60-year-old land debt, accusing the Ministry of Lands of relying on questionable historical records. The affected areas include Mwongori, Matutu, Nyansiongo, Kineni and Esise, where families fear that inaccurate government records could expose them to fresh financial claims over properties whose ownership was settled generations ago.
A 29-page demand letter dated October 30, 2026, has been filed by Momanyi & Associates Advocates, representing the Borabu Residents Association, accusing the government of initiating debt recovery without first establishing the authenticity of the alleged outstanding balances.
