In 1975 as Kenya tottered on the brink following the murder of JM Kariuki, amid some unexplained bombings and general unrest among university students, Christopher Nashisako bought a five-acre parcel in Mumias at Sh3,000 per acre.
But as soon as the deal was sealed, the seller, Aggrey Nyapola, filed a suit in the Resident Magistrate's Court at Kakamega (RMCC No 36 of 1975). He alleged that he sold three and not five acres to Nashisako. The suit was dismissed.
