Three women were on Wednesday injured while demonstrating in Kiserian against the alleged grabbing of their community trust land.
One woman was hit by a motorbike, another fell and injured her legs and arms, while the other collapsed.
The women had walked for more than 30kms as they headed to Kajiado West district headquarters to present their grievances to the deputy county commissioner, Morang’a Morekwa.
A police car from Ngong rushed the injured to the hospital as their leaders led by Grace Parmuat addressed the journalists in Kiserian.
Others who spoke include Hellen Koitikash, Hannah Teeka and Peter Kipolonka, all from the Osupuko, Kibiku in Kajiado West subcounty.
The women asked for the intervention of President William Ruto to stop the alleged subdivision and selling of the 2,800-acres to non-community members.
They accused some elected leaders from the county of working with individuals behind the subdivision.
This happened while Kajiado Governor Joseph Lenku and his Lands executive Hamilton Parseina were meeting Lands CS Zacharia Njeru and PS Nixon Korir in Nairobi.
The chairman of the National Land Commission Gerishom Otachi invited Lenku and some of the Keek-Onyokie trustees to a meeting with Njeru.
The meeting aims to arbitrate on the underlying issues between two warring factions in the community trust land.
Otachi, on Thursday, said arbitration is the only way out as those who are squabbling belong to the same community.
“We are here to serve justice to the community and leave them in peace. Every member of that community has a right to be heard and served justice,” he said.
Parseina said it is good news to hear that the NLC is fronting for peace, and reconciliation after arbitrating on the matter that has taken years to resolve.
He said three years ago, some known individuals had attempted to grab the land but Governor Lenku intervened.
