Nairobi residents can now breathe a sigh of relief as Governor Johnson Sakaja has announced a one-month extension of the land-rate penalty waiver.
Governor Sakaja announced in a statement on Thursday that the waiver’s original deadline of December 31, 2023, has been pushed to January 31, 2024.
“Enjoy the 100% waiver and regularize the status of your property. Enforcement on default will commence in February,” Sakaja said.
The waiver was intended to give building managers and landowners plenty of time to pay any outstanding penalties.
He advised that payments be made using the USSD code *647# or the bank accounts of the county officials in accordance with Nairobi County’s no-cash policy.
