High Court 6908 of 2026

In re EN (Child) (Adoption Cause 154 of 2006) [2026] KEHC 6908 (KLR) (Family) (21 May 2026) (Judgment) Neutral citation: [2026] KEHC 6908 (KLR) REPUBLIC OF KENYA IN THE HIGH COURT AT NAIROBI (MILIMANI LAW COURTS) FAMILY ADOPTION CAUSE 154 OF 2006 HK CHEMITEI, J MAY 21, 2026 IN THE MATTER OF EN (CHILD) IN THE MATTER OF MSR ...................................................................................................... 1ST APPLICANT TMR .................................................................................................... 2ND APPLICANT JUDGMENT 1. The chamber summons dated 16th February 2022 prays for the following orders:(a) That Eunice Nasieku, the child subject matter of this cause presently known as Winnie Stella Rains be presumed to be a Kenyan citizen by birth. (b) That the Director of Immigration be authorised to issue the child with a Kenyan passport. 2. The application is based on the grounds thereof and the sworn affidavit of the Applicants dated the same date. 3. I have perused the said affidavit and in particular the judgement of Justice K H Rawal (as she then was) dated 26th September 2008 and the reasons for this application. 4. I think the application is fairly procedural and to seal a loophole left behind when the aforestated judgement was delivered that is declaring that the child was a Kenyan citizen by presumption. 5. In the premises I do find merit in the application and the same is hereby allowed as prayed with no order as to costs. DATED SIGNED AND DELIVERED VIA VIDEO LINK AT NAIROBI THIS 21ST DAY OF MAY 2026. https://new.kenyalaw.org/akn/ke/judgment/kehc/2026/6908/eng@2026-05-21 1
