Police advise Nyali School to bring down any illegal structures as they battle alleged ‘land grabbers’ on their property.

Nyali school in Mombasa is at the verge of losing their school to land grabbers who the management says have been subdividing their land illegally.

This comes even as police last week visited the school and advised the management to evacuate anyone and demolish any house that has been set up in their school land and wait for anyone claiming to own the 12.5 acres piece of land in court.

The police visited the school’s land in Nyali where they found a few setups giving a sign that there were people living in the school land and had set up temporal houses inside.

When the police arrived the land was already being ploughed and and sections being cleared for development without the managements knowledge and a gate had already been erected at the entrance of the land.

Moreso, a perimeter wall had also been erected at the center of the land where the school suspected that some subdivision could have been done and another alleged grabber could have taken the other section of the land.

The management could not confirm who could be behind the grabbing of the school and tractor that had been spotted clearing the land.

However they had been removed by the time the police and the school management arrived at the land.

John Mwangi, one the members of the school management said that they have been battling land grabbers who have been subdividing and selling the school land without their knowledge.

“We have met some of them before the National Land Commission and they have never produced any documentation showing the ownership of our land,” Mwangi explained to the police while they toured the land.

He was accompanied by the school acting principal and the police during the tour to the school land.
