Nairobi Governor Johnson Sakaja has distributed 1,000 title deeds to residents in a move aimed at ensuring security for landowners in Nairobi
Sakaja reiterated his administration’s commitment to fulfilling its promises.
He said the issuance of title deeds was a key achievement in addressing land ownership issues in the city.
"Without a title deed, you cannot truly claim that you own land. Today, you can proudly walk with this deed in hand," Governor Sakaja said in an event held at Charter Hall, Nairobi.
In the past two years, the county government has issued over 7,000 title deeds to both residents and institutions across Nairobi.
Sakaja emphasized that this initiative is part of his administration's broader mission to improve service delivery.
"As your government, it is our responsibility to serve you. The issuance of these title deeds is an essential aspect of that service," he added.
The beneficiaries of the title deeds come from various neighbourhoods, including 14 schemes in areas like Kayole, Dandora, and Patanisho.
Governor Sakaja urged recipients to recognize the legal and financial significance of owning a title deed.
"With a title deed, you have the power to secure loans or pass it down to future generations. It’s a document that empowers you," Sakaja noted.
The governor also issued a stern warning to land grabbers, affirming that his government is committed to recovering illegally acquired land.
He reaffirmed his dedication to continuing with service delivery and fulfilling his promises to Nairobi residents.
