Kenya: Demolition of school building shines light on public land vulnerabilities

3 yıl önce
In the early morning hours of October 6, a school building on the outskirts of the Kenyan capital Nairobi, was demolished without warning. The perpetrators are yet unconfirmed, but local associations suspect a private company that has been part of a land dispute with the school since the 90s. This demolition is part of a larger phenomenon of public land insecurity in Kenya, with associations working to protect schools from encroachment and land grabbing.
