A Visit to Kimasaas cooperative squatters
In a heartwarming turn of events, a mid-morning visit to the Kimasas Cooperative squatters revealed a glimmer of hope for the residents who have long endured deplorable living conditions and a protracted legal battle against Eastern Produce of Kenya (EPK). The dispute, which had seen EPK secure a temporary court injunction, appeared to be inching towards a resolution that favors the rightful owners of the land.
Kimasas Cooperative, a group of determined idividuals who have steadfastly clung to their dreams of land ownership, had been locked in a legal tussle with EPK. The struggle has been a daunting one, as EPK's significant financial clout has allowed them to manipulate the situation through court injunctions.
However, during the visit, leaders from EPK and Police Security officers from Nandi East sub county were present to engage in discussions with the cooperative's representatives. It marked a significant step towards finding an amicable solution to this long-standing issue.
The land in question rightfully belongs to the Kimasas Cooperative, and the persistent legal battles and injunctions that have marred their journey seem to be nearing an end. The cooperative's unwavering determination, coupled with the support of local authorities and leaders, gives hope that one day, the Kimasas squatters will finally earn their full title as owners of the 350-acre tea farm. This inspiring story serves as a reminder that justice and perseverance can ultimately prevail over adversity.
