Even as Government Embarks on Implementation of Mau Forest Court Ruling, Njoro MP Charity Kathambi has lauded the government for ongoing public engagement.

PS Mugambi echoed these sentiments, stating that the government fully respects the rule of law and will strictly adhere to the court’s directive to mark the forest boundaries.
“Our role here is to put the boundaries in place as per the 2001 map. We must honor the court ruling and ensure the process is transparent and peaceful,” he said.
“We express our gratitude to the two Principal Secretaries for engaging the community and providing clarity on the ongoing process. Today I am happy because the government has come to inform residents about what is happening on the ground,” stated Kathambi.
Kathambi urged everyone to support the officers as they carry out their work reiterating the need for everyone to embrace peace and love one another.
