Millionaire Archbishop Musa Magodo will finally be buried at his matrimonial home at Gataka, Kajiado County.
Justice Lydiah Achode yesterday ordered that the body that had been lying at Umash Funeral Home be released to Gladys Ingaiza for burial. At the same time, the court ordered Ingaiza to consult with Magodo’s other widows Margaret Makungu and Gladys Nekesa and the bishop’s father and brother on burial plans.
The Family Court’s verdict on where the Magodo Ministries Archbishop will be buried ended a two-year battle between Nekesa and Ingaiza. Justice Achode said Magodo authored his misfortune by failing to put his house in order. He had customary marriage with Makungu and Ingaiza then also wedded.
