City Council Cemetery Land Scandal

The City Council Cemetery Land Scandal is a scandal that in March 2010, resulted in the Kenyan Deputy Prime Minister Musalia Mudavadi coming under investigation by the Kenya Anti-Corruption Commission(KACC) over a Sh283 million cemetery land fraud at the Nairobi City Council. KACC officials said that they wanted to establish whether the minister was party to the fraud in which the City Council of Nairobi bought land valued at Sh24 million for nearly Sh300 million. Mr Mudavadi however protested his innocence and said KACC was being unfair by accusing him without giving him a chance to be heard.[1] Investigations are currently ongoing into the matter.
