Gatundu Land Row

The image of a family in Gatundu digging mass graves has been all over the media of late, baffling all. The family is planning to dig a grave for all its family members (56 in all). Its reported that they’ve so far dug over 15 graves in total.

The plan is to commit suicide en masse in protest over the sale of the land by one of the family members, without the knowledge or approval of the other family members, consequently leaving the family as squatters. The family claim to have sought for help from all quaters with no avail and decided on mass suicide as the last alternative.

Their reasoning is they’d rather be dead instead of alive and squatting, hence the mass grave digging -which has turned the farm into one chilling sight.

Surprisingly only one Member Of Parliament (former Gatundu MP) has commented on their plight so far.
