Speaking alongside Interior CS Kipchumba Murkomen and PS Raymond Omollo, Wavinya asserted that every legitimate landowner with a valid title deed must be protected. &#8220;If you have a genuine land title, no one should set foot on your property,&#8221; she thundered. Her message was consistent, recalling her past stance as Kathiani MP and now as Machakos Governor a tireless defender of property rights.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_3527\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-3527\" style=\"width: 300px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-3527 size-medium\" src=\"https:\/\/kambalandtimes.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/1745695458721-300x200.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"200\" srcset=\"https:\/\/kambalandtimes.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/1745695458721-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/kambalandtimes.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/1745695458721-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/kambalandtimes.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/1745695458721.jpg 960w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-3527\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Picture: Governor wavinya Ndeti and CS interior Kipchumba Murkomen<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<figure id=\"attachment_3528\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-3528\" style=\"width: 300px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-3528 size-medium\" src=\"https:\/\/kambalandtimes.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/1745695268302-300x200.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"200\" srcset=\"https:\/\/kambalandtimes.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/1745695268302-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/kambalandtimes.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/1745695268302-768x513.jpg 768w, https:\/\/kambalandtimes.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/1745695268302.jpg 960w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-3528\" class=\"wp-caption-text\"><em>Picture: Governor wavinya Ndeti<\/em><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>Wavinya condemned the persistent menace of forced evictions, describing it as a blight on justice that must be eradicated.

She revealed that, through collaboration with the national government, KCB Bank has agreed to sell disputed land directly to the residents living there, giving them a clear path to ownership. Similarly, an agreement with East African Portland Cement will enable Green Park residents to formalize their homeownership. Wavinya\u2019s commitment to resolving historical land injustices drew thunderous applause, a signal that her efforts are striking the right chords with the people.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>However, the Governor did not spare those who, despite owning vast lands, have evaded paying land rates. *&#8221;Enough is enough,&#8221; she warned, announcing that she will soon issue demands for all outstanding land rates to be settled. &#8220;You must honor your obligations to Machakos County,&#8221; she insisted, her tone leaving no room for doubt. With this electrifying speech, Governor Wavinya Ndeti reaffirmed her place as a relentless defender of justice, property rights, and the rightful aspirations of her people.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>In a fiery address during the Lower Eastern Jukwaa La Usalama forum held today in Machakos County, Governor<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":3532,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[52,18],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-3526","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-governance","category-newsbeat"],"featured_image_urls":{"full":["https:\/\/kambalandtimes.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/1745695356050.jpg",960,641,false],"thumbnail":["https:\/\/kambalandtimes.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/1745695356050-150x150.jpg",150,150,true],"medium":["https:\/\/kambalandtimes.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/1745695356050-300x200.jpg",300,200,true],"medium_large":["https:\/\/kambalandtimes.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/1745695356050-768x513.jpg",640,428,true],"large":["https:\/\/kambalandtimes.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/1745695356050.jpg",640,427,false],"1536x1536":["https:\/\/kambalandtimes.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/1745695356050.jpg",960,641,false],"2048x2048":["https:\/\/kambalandtimes.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/1745695356050.jpg",960,641,false],"morenews-featured":["https:\/\/kambalandtimes.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/1745695356050.jpg",960,641,false],"morenews-large":["https:\/\/kambalandtimes.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/1745695356050-825x575.jpg",825,575,true],"morenews-medium":["https:\/\/kambalandtimes.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/1745695356050-590x410.jpg",590,410,true]},"author_info":{"display_name":"Kambaland Times","author_link":"https:\/\/kambalandtimes.com\/author\/kituitimes\/"},"category_info":"<a href=\"https:\/\/kambalandtimes.com\/index.php\/category\/governance\/\" rel=\"category tag\">Governance<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/kambalandtimes.com\/index.php\/category\/newsbeat\/\" rel=\"category tag\">Newsbeat<\/a>","tag_info":"Newsbeat","comment_count":"2","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/kambalandtimes.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3526","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/kambalandtimes.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/kambalandtimes.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/kambalandtimes.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/kambalandtimes.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=3526"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/kambalandtimes.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3526\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":3533,"href":"https:\/\/kambalandtimes.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3526\/revisions\/3533"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/kambalandtimes.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/3532"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/kambalandtimes.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=3526"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/kambalandtimes.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=3526"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/kambalandtimes.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=3526"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
