Mukuru residents protest six-month delay in relocation funds

Residents of the new Mukuru housing estate staged protests over delays in the release of their relocation facilitation funds, six months after moving into their new homes. Each household was expected to receive 30,000 shillings as a relocation allowance to help them settle. However, many residents say the money has yet to be disbursed, raising fears that they may be shortchanged. Monday morning, some residents pitched camp outside the affordable housing project offices in Upper Hill, Nairobi, demanding answers and immediate action.
