Reacting to the March 2011 article titled Mpeketoni ni yetu milele we posted from Uchunguzi Online earlier: Joe said on February 2, 2014 @ 3:50 pm: I have travelled to Mpeketoni,16hr journey, OMG! Vast bare lands and its rediculously hot, you cant sell blankets and honestly i was shocked to find kikuyus, kambas and embus everywhere and suddenly i felt like i had visited my grand parents, but there were no old people around, they are the 2nd and 3rd generation of the settlement scheme. The town is thriving with businesses and farming is done to the maximum almost up to the beach, that is why there is a daily bus(simba coach) from and to nairobi and banks have set up shop. Kenya power will only supply to people who want their product and can afford it, its a business! It has nothin to do with tribe or government favours. Infrastructure automaticaly pops up where there is high economic activity. And when u say the indigenous are being misplaced u are lying to the ’50 others’ their is too much bare unused land full of shrubs. And the era of ancestral lands is gone, kenya is a republic and any citizen can settle anywhere in kenya. Ur way of thinking is that, if someone is born a luo they are entitled to land in kisumu. And from which generation should we start looking at ‘historical injustice’ of migration and settlement of communities? Mombasa is full arabs, didnt they migrate from arabian countries? Infact historicaly bantus ,nilots and cushites migrated into kenya, so where is the migration timeline and who sets it?
