An attempt by a businessman and his family to possess a public car park has failed after a court dismissed his claims.

Justice Samson Okong'o, of the Environment and Lands Court, ruled that the land in Buruburu Estate within Nairobi County which is currently being used as a bus stage was irregularly allocated to George Ngacha Njiriri as it is a public land earmarked for developing a car park for the residents.
