Members of Nakuru-based Prarie Cooperative Society have accused Bahati MP Kimani Ngunjiri and Menengai East Ward Rep Wilson Mwangi of plotting to grab their land.
Led by their chairman Francis Kariuki Muhindi, the society members claimed that they bought 69.8-acre land, which they later subdivided, from a white settler farmer in the 1960s.
