A decades-old tussle over control of the expansive Wasini island, said to be worth more than Sh1.4 billion, could soon end after the National Lands Commission (NLC) intervened again to resolve the stalemate.
NLC Commissioner Esther Murugi has directed Lands officials in Kwale to fast-track the adjudication of the island so as to resolve the dispute pitting locals against the Mohamed Maula Saggaf family, which owns 289 acres on it.
