 Maracha District Local Government in partnership with the Ministry of Lands Housing and Urban Development has been implementing a pilot DINU- Land Component Project in two benefiting Sub Counties of Kijomoro and Oluvu with funding from United Nations Capital Development Fund (UNCDF) and European Union (EU). In total 1,454 Certificate of Customary Ownership have been successfully processed in the two piloting Sub Counties and as part of EU monitoring mission today 13-6-2022 four certificates were issued to the beneficiaries by the District Chairperson Hon Obitre Stephen, the EU  team, and UNCDF awaiting the official issuance which is yet to be communicated soon. As part of his Remarks, the District Chairperson thanked European Union, United Nations Capital Development Fund and the Ministry of Lands Housing and Urban Development for the project whose outcome provides security of tenure which can be used as collateral for financial transactions and therefore requested if funds allow the project should be enrolled to the other remaining Sub Counties such that the ever increasing Land disputes in the District are Minimized. The CAO expressed his gratitude to the funders and the Ministry for having selected the District as part of piloting Districts.
