National Land Commission (NLC) chairman Mohammed Swazuri was on Monday disowned by fellow commissioners.
This is after Swazuri was accused of receiving a Sh1 million bribe in a fiticious SGR scam.
The commissioners said they were not part of any transactions regarding compensation for land reserved for the standard gauge railway (SGR).
“A lot of payments were done in December when most of us were away. I wrote to the CEO demanding a schedule of SGR payments from October to December. I also asked for copies of gazette notices regarding the parcels of land. I asked for those things to be provided to me within seven days but they were not provided...as a commissioner, I am very uncomfortable with what happened,” Sheriff told the National Assembly Lands Committee.
Swazuri is facing accusations of receiving bribes for compensation for land surrendered for the railway project.
