    The KLA proposed constitutional principles on land reform as captured in the constitutional draft have become more pronounced with the approach of General Elections and the transition that is expected to see the departure of President Moi from leadership. We therefore, detest the frantic efforts to go to the forthcoming elections before adopting the Ghai draft constitution, because that will be endangering the aroused expectation that at long last we are on the road to sorting out land problems we have lived with since independence.

    The Kenya Land Alliance takes this opportunity to congratulate the Commission of Inquiry into the Land Law Systems of Kenya (‘Njonjo Commission’) for completing their task, which has painstakingly taken them three years. The KLA fraternity was pleased to hear the president’s remarks that the Njonjo report was a blueprint that would guide the future government in handling the delicate land issues efficiently and justly.

The chapter that deals with land in the Draft Constitution Bill is Chapter Eleven under the title Land and Property.

    Resumen El propósito de este documento es incentivar un debate sobre un tema poco discutido en la región. Actualmente, los responsables de la gerencia de los predios agrícolas (tanto los agricultores por cuenta propia como los agricultores comerciales) de la región son, en alta proporción, personas de tercera edad, lo que no parece ser propicio para un desarrollo dinámico, ni del sector silvoagropecuario, ni de las áreas rurales, menos ante las exigencias cada vez mayores de competitividad en un mundo de mercados libres y globalizados.
