Lawyers representing Weston Hotel have filed a fresh application to stop Monday’s hearing of its case with Kenya Civil Aviation Authority at the Environment and Lands Court.
The case is scheduled to start on July 12, 2021, after Justice Bernard Eboso dismissed Weston’s argument that it had no powers to hear the case.
In June last year, Weston, that is associated with Deputy President William Ruto, urged Justice Eboso to dismiss Kenya Civil Aviation Authority (KCAA’s) case arguing that the court had no powers to hear it.

Deputy President William Ruto has lost the first round of a court battle filed by the Kenya Civil Aviation Authority (KCAA) on the land where his Weston Hotel stands.
In June last year, Weston urged Justice Benard Eboso to dismiss KCAA’s case arguing that the Environment and Lands Court had no powers to hear it.
The hotel said KCAA had defied National Lands Commission’s (NLC) orders to conclude negotiations on the land after which Dr Ruto would compensate it. Weston argued that the only way the agency would approach the court was through an appeal and not a fresh case.
KCB supports Ruto in Weston Hotel demolition row

Summary
The bank Thursday told Justice Benard Eboso that the Kenya Civil Aviation Authority (KCAA) erred in filing a fresh suit for repossession of the land instead of challenging a 2019 decision of the National Land Commission (NLC).
The NLC had directed that Weston Hotel keeps ownership of the land and pays off KCAA for the property at the current market value.
But KCAA is pushing for revocation of the title issued in the 1990s, which ultimately will lead to the demolition of the hotel, drawing protests from the Deputy President.
