Ex-minister John Keen in another major land deal

Former minister John Keen could be a big beneficiary in the expansion of the city road network in a multi-billion shilling sale of land to the State.

National Land Commission Chairman Mohammad Swazuri said the State will acquire about 228 acres of prime land owned by companies associated with the 84-year-old former legislator. The land will be given to the Nairobi National Park as compensation for 89 acres it has lost to the Southern by-pass, on the section between Ole Sereni Hotel and Carnivore Restaurant along Lang’ata Road.
