REPUBLIC OF KENYA IN THE HIGH COURT OF KENYA AT MACHAKOS SUCCESSION CAUSE NO. 4 OF 2006 IN THE MATTER OF THE ESTATE OF JONATHAN NZUKI MBUI – (DECEASED) DANIEL KYALO NZUKI.................1ST ADMINISTRATOR/APPLICANT HARRISON KIMEU NZUKI..........2ND ADMINISTRATOR/APPLICANT RULING OF THE COURT 1. The Summons for Rectification of Grant before the court is dated and filed herein on 11th April, 2016. The Summons seeks the following orders; a. That the Confirmed Grant of Letters of Administration (intestate) issued to the said Daniel Kyalo Nzuki and Harrison Kimeu Nzuki in this matter on the 23rd day of June, 2008 be rectified to include Plot No. Mavoko Town Block 3/3409 inadvertently omitted from the list of assets of the deceased. b. That a new certificate of Confirmed grant be issued including Plot No. Mavoko Town Block 3/3409 to be registered in the name of Rose Mbithe Nzuki herein. c. That costs of this application be paid out of the estate 2. The application is supported by affidavit of Daniel Kyalo Nzuki and Harrison Kimeu Nzuki who are the joint administrators of the estate. Their case is that soon after the Confirmation of Grant herein, they discovered that the deceased owned parcel of land no. Mavoko Town Block 3/3409 and the same was not included as part of the deceased’s properties in the Confirmed Grant. Their case is that it is only fair and just that the said property be included in the description of the properties in the grant herein for the benefit of the beneficiaries. 3. I have considered the application. There is proof by title that the said plot Mavoko Town Block 3/3409 is indeed owned by the deceased, and it was not part of the original list of the property belonging to the estate. It is also agreed among the Administrators that the said property be given to Rose Mbithe Nzuki, the second wife of the deceased. There is no objection to the application and/or the mode of distribution of that property. 4. I allow the application and make the following orders; a. That the Confirmed Grant of Letters of Administration (intestate) issued to the said Daniel Kyalo Nzuki and Harrison Kimeu Nzuki in this matter on the 23rd day of June, 2008 be and is hereby rectified to include Plot No. Mavoko Town Block 3/3409 which was inadvertently omitted from the list of assets of the deceased.
