BUNGOMA, Kenya, Oct 10 – The Environment and Land Court in Bungoma has declared the Kanduyi Airstrip Smart City Affordable Housing Project unconstitutional, ordering the restoration of the disputed public land within 45 days.
In a judgment delivered virtually Thursday, Justice Kossy Bor found that the project violated constitutional requirements on public land management, environmental protection and public participation.
The court directed the respondents to restore approximately 36.95 acres of land identified as Bungoma Township/345 to its original condition at their own cost.
