The Court of Appeal has thrown out an application by two granddaughters of former freedom fighter Fredrick Polwarth Kubai.
In an escalation of a 25-year court case which now turns to be a third-generation duel, Appeal Court judges Hannah Okwengu, Asike Makhandia, and Patrick Kiage unanimously agreed that Mary Sidi Mendza and Jane Njeri Njeru cannot join the case filed by their late father Moses Mendza Kubai against Christina Gakuhi Kubai.
The appeal had been filed by Mendza and Kubai’s grandson Andrew Kamau. However, Mendza died on June 6, last year, leaving his two children to take up the fight.
