President William Ruto has concluded the first phase of a government programme targeting 300,000 title deeds for residents of Kenya’s Coast region as part of efforts to address longstanding land ownership challenges and historical injustices.
Ruto completed the first phase on Friday after issuing title deeds to beneficiaries in Lamu and Tana River counties, following similar exercises in Kwale, Kilifi, Taita Taveta and Mombasa during his tour of the region this week.
The programme targets a total of 500,000 title deeds in two phases, with an additional 200,000 ownership documents expected to be issued by December.
