EPZ Land Saga Haunts Taita Taveta MCAs

Taita Taveta county Ngoli ward MCA Jones Mghanga is at war with a section of his colleagues after he accused them of having benefited from 750 acres earmarked for Export Processing Zone. The land is located in his Ngoli ward at Manga Triangle, along the Nairobi-Mombasa Highway. Tempers flared as a number of MCAs demanded an ad hoc committee report on the land be tabled in the house and made public.

Currently, controversy surrounds the land ownership as Mbulia Group Ranch management and Manga community fight over it. An ad hoc committee had tabled a report naming the beneficiaries of the land with a section of MCAs implicated. Mghanga has dismissed the report on grounds, it was tailored to protect powerful individuals including MCAs.


It is emerging, MCAs and other land speculators have moved to the area in droves and illegally acquired land at the expense of the EPZ and thousands of squatters. According to Mghanga, the report is a shell as it protects politicians who have illegally benefited from land meant for the EPZ project. Minority leader Ronald Sagurani wants Mghanga to name the culprits.

Kaloleni MCA Ahmed Omar did not spare Mghanga claiming he is not a land grabber raising eyebrows in the assembly.
Wumingu-Kishushe ward rep Newton Salim came to Mghanga’s defence.
