Six years after his death, the family of former nominated MP and Kanu-era power broker, Mark Too and his children born out of wedlock are still battling over his multimillion estate. Last week, the High Court in Eldoret ordered that all the children of the deceased MP be subjected to a sibling DNA test to ascertain their paternity. The order by Justice Eric Ogola came after Chepkoech Too, a woman claiming to be Too's biological daughter, filed an application seeking to have the tests conducted.

Chepkoech filed the application in February after the late MP's widows Mary and Sophia Too disowned her. In her application, Chepkoech claimed to have been fathered by Too, stating that she had a right to be included in the sharing of her father's vast estate. She presented before court her birth certificate showing the late MP as her father.She also produced photos of her mother with the deceased as proof of a relationship between the two. She also attached evidence that she had been in touch with her step-siblings and that she had visited the deceased on various occasions, adding that she had been present at the funeral of the deceased as well. Through her lawyer Diana Ndirangu, Chepkoech argued that it was unfair to lock her out of the sharing of the estate and demanded that a DNA test be conducted to solve the paternity issue before the succession case could continue.
