Moi-Eldoret State Lodge land row: Records raise questions over State claim to prime plot

Land registry records linking a five-acre parcel near Eldoret State Lodge to the family of former President Daniel arap Moi and Willowdale Investments Limited have raised questions about the basis of the reported government claim to the property, whose occupants were recently evicted by officers from the General Service Unit (GSU).

The takeover, which began days before Eldoret hosted this year’s Mashujaa Day celebrations on Tuesday, saw private guards who had secured the property for nearly a year removed and employees’ belongings transferred from the premises.
