Tatu City developers have declined to give out 10 percent of their 5000-acre piece of land to Kiambu County Government as directed by Governor Ferdinand Waititu.
Speaking to local dailies, the developers indicated that they will not issue the 10 percent as required and noted that the project is already at an advanced stage of implementation.
“Tatu City is not a subdivision, rather it is a new city with an approved master plan by government and at an advanced stage of implementation,” read the statement.
Mid-February 2019, Governor Waititu ordered Tatu City developers to hand over 10 percent of their land to be used for public purposes as it is in line with the Constitution.
On Sunday, Tatu city had an open day to officially open up Kijani Ridge and the Head of Tatu city stood his ground saying that there is no legal requirement to surrender the land to the county government.
