In re Estate of Wangari Karuku Wathiai (Deceased) (Succession Cause 7 of 2010) [2024] KEHC 14024 (KLR) (12 November 2024) (Directions) Neutral citation: [2024] KEHC 14024 (KLR) REPUBLIC OF KENYA IN THE HIGH COURT AT NAKURU SUCCESSION CAUSE 7 OF 2010 HI ONG'UDI, J NOVEMBER 12, 2024 IN THE MATTER OF THE ESTATE OF WANGARI KARUKU WATHIAI (DECEASED) BETWEEN AGNES NYAMBURA ............................................................. 1ST ADMINISTRATOR NANCY NJOKI ...................................................................... 2ND ADMINISTRATOR PATRICK IROWA ................................................................. 3RD ADMINISTRATOR AND BENSON KARUKU WATHIAI ................................................................ OBJECTOR DIRECTIONS 1. These directions are in respect of three (3) applications, being: the summons dated 4th February, 2022, the Notice of motion dated 7th March, 2022 and the summons for revocation of grant dated 19th July, 2022. 2. The said applications are scheduled for ruling today. However, in the process of working on the ruling I found some gaps in relation to the properties belonging to the estate of the deceased. This is after going through the certificates of the confirmed grant and the proposed re-distribution. 3. For the said reasons the administrators herein are directed to avail to court copies of the title deeds together with current official searches for all the parcels of land falling under the estate of the deceased; bank statements, share certificates and the logbook. 4. The administrators are also directed to give an inventory of properties that have been sold from the estate, the names of beneficiaries who sold them and to whom they were sold. This is to enable this court reach a just and fair decision in relation to the distribution of the deceased’s estate. https://new.kenyalaw.org/akn/ke/judgment/kehc/2024/14024/eng@2024-11-12 1
