My brother, who is in the UK, helped me to buy the land and build a house," said the homeowner. The government is moving in bad faith to demolish our houses before we get a court order from Monday to today,"Mr Mutua said. We are pleading with President Ruto to order the demolition to stop. On Friday, President Ruto gave the go-ahead for the demolition, praising the court ruling.
