REPUBLIC OF KENYA IN THE HIGH COURT OF KENYA AT KISII SUCCESSION CAUSE NO. 74 OF 2012 IN THE MATTER OF THE ESTATE OF CHARLES ONGERI ONAMI RULING 1. This ruling is on the Application dated 18 th March, 2024. Which is a Summons for Rectification of the Certificate of Confirmation issued in this matter on 8 th November 2013. The Summons is supported by the Supporting Affidavit of RICHARD OMAE MAKORI the Administrator of this Estate. 2. It has stated that the reason for the intended rectification is that there is an error in the Certificate. That the error is in the description of the land parcel comprised in this Estate. That the error is that the land is stated in the Certificate as NYARIBARI CHACHE B/B/BOBURIA/5148 instead of NYARIBARI CHACHE/B/B/BOBURIA/6148. That the error is that the number is stated as 5148 instead of 6148. 3. Upon perusal of the said Certificate, I find no error in it. In fact, it is the Application itself that is erroneous. The actual position is that the said land parcel is actually stated as NYARIBARI CHACHE/B/B/BOBURIA6148. Which is the correct number. Therefore, there is no error as alleged in this Application. For that reason, this Application is mistaken and fails. Hence is hereby dismissed accordingly. DATED and DELIVERED at KISII on this 31st July 2026 PROF (DR) NIXON SIFUNA JUDGE KISII HC Succession Cause No. 74 of 2012 1
