Comment on displacement of people

240 families have been evicted from Narasha and Olomayiana Kubwa villages in Naivasha county. The investors are accused of being responsible for the evictions, but one party (KenGen) disclaims and states that the villages where the evictions took place are not part of the land acquired for the project and that their interest in the area affected by the evictions is only "a small portion". They claim to have finalized negotiations with Project-Affected Persons (PAPs) on "a mutually-acceptable resettlement agreement" (see Daily Nation 2013-7-30)
