Kajiado Governor Joseph ole Lenku s tenure as a Cabinet Secretary returned to haunt him over a decision made by the government in 2014.
Lenku was appearing before the Narok Environment and Lands Court on Wednesday to testify in a case where members of the Nguruman Group Ranch have sued the government for losses amounting to Sh50 billion.
The members argue they incurred the loss during an invasion of the 68,000-acre ranch by squatters. Lenku was put to task by lawyer Ahmednasir Abdullahi over his leadership skills at that time when he was serving as Cabinet Secretary for Interior and Coordination of National Government.
