The Senate has summoned three constitutional bodies in its probe on a decades-old Maseno boundary dispute that has dogged Kisumu, Siaya and Vihiga counties.
The Devolution Committee chaired by Homa Bay Senator Moses Kajwang’ will be seeking to establish if the National Lands Commission (NLC), the Independent Electoral and Boundaries Commission (IEBC) and the National Cohesion and Integration Commission (NCIC) are aware of the dispute and what progress, if any, has been made to settle the matter.
The meeting that is scheduled for this week follows a petition by 16 residents of Vihiga who are laying claim to three sub-locations presently domiciled in Kisumu County.
