Three widows and the son of former nominated Member of Parliament Philip Kamau have declined their court-appointed roles as executors of his will, sparking renewed controversy in a family estate case that has dragged on for more than three decades.

On September 29, 2023, the High Court appointed Kamau’s widows — Teresia Njeri, Margaret Damat, and Lucy Wanjiru, along with his son Joseph Njuguna, as executors of Kamau’s will.
