For almost a week now, I’ve been trying to understand the Israel Solai issue, and I fully understand the emotions involved, especially given events in the Middle East. But I fear we may be directing anger at the wrong target. Israelis are not the only foreigners acquiring land in Kenya. Turkish citizens are active on the Coast from Kwale to Kilifi. UAE interests have been taking over even forests Indians too. Americans, British, Europeans, and others are also purchasing land in Kenya Nor would this be the first foreign religious or cultural project in Kenya. Chinese citizens have built Buddhist temples in Kenya. Turkish organizations have built mosques. Many foreign-funded churches and institutions exist across the country. So the core issue is not nationality or religion. The real issue is our laws. Foreigners are not seizing land by force; they are navigating weak regulations, gaps in oversight, and unclear ownership systems. Today, the debate is about Israelis. Tomorrow it could be any other country. The underlying risk remains the same. If we don’t fix this, Kenya risks recreating a modern version of the colonial land imbalance, where citizens are crowded out of their own land. Instead of outrage alone, we should be pressuring our MPs and Parliament to amend the law to protect strategic land, review foreign land ownership laws, and have the Ministry of Lands accelerate the issuance of title deeds to locals to secure land permanently. Foreign investors could be allowed to lease land for limited short periods rather than permanently own vast tracts. Public outrage alone will not solve this. Pressure on Parliament to reform the law will. Treat the disease, not the symptom.
