The community want caveat on Mau Forest settlements reconsidered.
Members of the Ogiek community living in Eastern Mau have warned that the lifting of caveat placed on settlement schemes in Nakuru County will lead to conflict.
The community wants the government to issue a policy direction for stakeholder dialogue on the pros and cons of lifting the caveat as the community is a major stakeholder in the controversial matter.
