Mixed Reactions as Oscar Sudi Defies Court Orders and Leads Demolitions in Uasin Gishu: Kapseret member of parliament Oscar Sudi on Wednesday led a group of youth in demolishing structures of Five families in Eldoret who have been tussling over the ownership of the 20-acre piece of land.
A group of youth armed with crude weapons allegedly brought by MP Oscar Sudi, who supervised the exercise, were seen bringing down structures at the 20-acre Kamagut farm.
In a video clip at the Kamagut area, an unidentified woman is seen talking to President Ruto, who then summons the Kapseret MP.
The woman in question revealed that she sought help from the Head of State to repossess the 20-acre piece that was allegedly grabbed from her and two other families.
She stated, “Nilikuwa classmate na rais, sasa vile alikuja akanisalamia, nikamwambia kuna mtu amechukua shamba yangu nataka anisaidie…rais akaniuliza ni nani anajua hii maneno, nikamwambia Sudi ndio anajua. Akaita Sudi akamwambia sikia hiyo maneno ya huyo mama na ufanye haraka.”
However, a magistrate’s court in Eldoret ruling delivered on September 2, 2022 declared Paul Kirwa Samoei and two others as the owners of the land.
In an appeal at the High Court in Eldoret, the court again made a ruling in favour of Kirwa on January 19, 2023.
On Wednesday, Kirwa watched helplessly as his structures were torn down, in complete disregard of the court’s ruling
This has raised mixed reaction on the internet;
Amakanji stated,”Who will speak for the voiceless in this cruel society? Watch how those grabbers came with police to destroy her properties earlier after oiling the judiciary and obtaining fake documents, this is not the Kenya we want. I support Oscar Sudi on this.”
Kai kai expressed,”Kapseret MP, Hon Oscar Sudi, has decided to deal with land grabbers together with his constituents. This shows how land issues have been a thorn in many Kenyans and the Ministry of Land and the Judiciary must find the best way to resolve land issues urgently.”
Konrad posed,” Guys, here is a clip of a Kenyan legislator who is supposed to understand the law leading goons in demolishing houses. Oscar Sudi led goons in demolishing houses in Eldoret. The goons were armed with power saws. At some point, they used petrol to burn down houses. And you guys still think you have a country?”
