President William Ruto begins an 8-day development tour of the Coast region on Saturday with two key issues on the agenda – the issuance of nearly 200,000 title deeds and the groundbreaking of a new refinery in Lamu.
The tour, covering Taita-Taveta, Kwale, Kilifi, Mombasa, Tana River and Lamu counties, will provide the President with an opportunity to assess the progress of Government projects in the region while engaging residents and local leaders on development priorities.
The issuance of title deeds is part of the Government’s plan to distribute 500,000 land ownership documents as it seeks to address longstanding squatter and other land-related challenges that have affected communities in the Coast region for decades.
