Summary
Nakuru East MP David Gikaria has lost ownership of a piece of land in Nakuru to a fuel distribution company after a protracted legal battle.
Justice Dalmas Ohungo of the Environment and Lands Court in Nakuru found the land measuring approximately 0.101hectares legally belongs to Galana Oil Kenya Limited and ordered for cancellation of the title held by Mr Gikaria.
The oil firm moved to court after Mr Gikaria trespassed on the suit property sometime in March 2014 and that upon conducting a search, it discovered that he had fraudulently been issued with a parallel title deed to the suit property.
