The Cabinet on Tuesday approved the issuance of 60,000 title deeds to Coast residents in a move to address the squatter problem there.
By approving the issuance of the title deeds by the end of this month, the Cabinet was fulfilling Deputy President William Ruto’s pledge to Coast residents last weekend that Jubilee will resolve the land problem in the region “once and for all.”
