President Uhuru Kenyatta’s kin to contest Sh700m property case at Supreme Court

 The Court of Appeal has allowed President Uhuru Kenyatta’s kin to challenge at the Supreme Court a judgement of the Court of Appeal, which allowed Kenya Commercial Bank (KCB) to auction its 433 acre farm in Thika over disputed loan.

KCB and two companies; Muiri Coffee Estate and Benjoh Amalgamated have been involved in a court case over property worth millions of shillings. The suit before the court of appeal has been pending in court for 22 years. At stake is the 433 acre farm in Thika, which KCB sold to Bidii Kenya Limited at a cost of Sh70 million through a public auction.
