Loss of Maasai land

Link to this post 13 Aug 12

Has anyone heard of a rumour that 48,000 Maasai are facing being thrown off their own land by the Tanzanian government just so that kings and princes from the middle east can go hunting?I thing this is disgusting and shouldn't be allowed but i suppose money always comes before people.

Hi Kikuyu, welcome to Bushdrums.

Do you have any leads to this or more information?

Link to this post 27 Aug 12

Kikuyu: My apologies for not answering sooner as I was in Kenya at the time of your posting.

The only thing I have heard about the issue of taking Maasai land was in an article at:

Tanzania: No Plans to Evict Maasai From Serengeti

http://allafrica.com/stories/201208270184.html

I have heard nothing further regarding any take over. If I learn of anything else I will be glad to post it here.

Kikuyu: The original posting on Avaaz.org can be found at:

Stop the Serengeti Sell-off

http://www.avaaz.org/en/save_the_maasai/?vc


The poster of the petition didn't state on what they based their information that land would be taken.

I guess this is another avaaz scare mongering story.
