"We have managed to reach an agreement to meet President William Ruto's wish for the project to start soon.
We will pay the affected people in the next two months,” PS, Investment, Abubakar Hassan.
Five months after President William Ruto suspended the Sh1.4 billion compensations for the Project Affected Persons (PAPs) list to pave the way for verification, the government will resume payments to the affected people in two months.
More than 1,648 residents of Dongo Kundu, Mwangala, Mrongondoni, Kaya Mtongwe, Mbuta and Siji villages will be resettled on 357 acres of land to pave the way for the project.
