The Kenya Forest Service is warning Kenyans not to be duped into buying land within Ngong Road Forest around Sunvalley Lang'ata and surrounding areas without verification.
"Much of the land that is purportedly up for sale by crooks there is part of Ngong Forest land which will be reclaimed.
Mr Kamau said the Ngong Road Forest sits on 1,224.4 hectares, but 789 hectares have been grabbed by unscrupulous developers and land racketeers.
KFS board chairman Peter Kinyua said some people had acquired titles to the land under forest area fraudulently.
But it remains gazetted as forest land and it has a legal notice and there is no process of degazettement that has been undertaken," Mr Kamau said.
