President William Ruto is set to visit Kwale County as part of his ongoing development tour of the Coast region.
He is expected to issue 94,175 title deeds to residents in a major push to address historical land ownership challenges.
The President is scheduled to preside over the issuance of the title deeds to beneficiaries in Lunga Lunga, Msambweni and Kinango constituencies, giving residents formal ownership of land they have occupied for years.
The exercise is part of a broader government initiative to resolve longstanding land disputes and secure tenure for communities in the coastal region, where land ownership has remained a major concern.
During his visit, Ruto is also expected to inspect ongoing government projects and engage local leaders and residents on development priorities in the county.
The Kwale tour forms part of a week-long presidential visit to the Coast, which includes the issuance of nearly 200,000 title deeds across the region.
The tour will also see the President break ground for the proposed Sh2 trillion East Africa Refinery project in Lamu, a major investment expected to expand the region's economic and industrial activities.
The refinery project is among the flagship developments planned for the Coast, with the government positioning the region as a key hub for infrastructure, energy and investment.
