The widows and children of former powerful Cabinet minister Mbiyu Koinange can now share his Sh30 billion estate after four decades of legal battle.

This is after the Court of Appeal in a recent ruling dismissed an appeal by Koinange's eldest son David Njunu challenging the High Court decision that okayed the distribution of the estate by the family.
