Governor Ntutu’s Brother Wins Another Legal Battle Over 4,000-Acre Mara Land
Narok, Kenya – The long-standing legal dispute over a 4,000-acre parcel in the Maasai Mara has taken another turn, with Governor Joseph Ntutu’s brother securing a court victory. The land, which has been the subject of litigation for 25 years across multiple courts, has seen numerous rulings and appeals, making it one of Narok County’s most protracted land cases.
According to court documents, the latest decision was made after an organization challenging the ownership was dismissed on a technicality related to late filing. While some stakeholders argue that the case is not fully resolved and could still be reviewed, the ruling currently favors Governor Ntutu’s brother. Public reactions have been mixed, with residents and observers questioning how a single individual could acquire such a vast tract of land and highlighting the political connections involved.
The contested 4,000-acre property, known locally as Orkiombo, has been central to debates on land ownership, historical claims, and governance in the region. Legal experts note that while technicalities can influence court outcomes, disputes of this magnitude often take years to fully settle. Residents and advocacy groups continue to monitor the situation, calling for transparency and adherence to the rule of law as the county navigates this high-profile land conflict.
