Uhuru Kenyatta has issued an executive order.
President Uhuru Kenyatta was speaking during the launch of prism tower in upper hill.
The President maintained that the ongoing efforts to reclaim property build on wet lands and riparian areas will be demolished.
He also said that nema officials and government officials who issued permts for consideration in the riparian areas and wetland areas will be prosecuted.
“We are now in the process of demolishing properties that have been build on riparian land along our riverbeds; a scenario that has resulted in flooding and other issues that make Nairobi uncomfortable to its own residents,” said the President.
“But equally, we are not going to just punish those who built.”
“I want to assure you that we are going after all those who issued those permits.”
“Those ones will be prosecuted… be they County officials, lands officials or NEMA officials, they will be prosecuted because they are equally at fault as those who build,” he added.
