What you need to know:

  • In an affidavit Dr John Kennedy Omanga, KTDA’s Company Secretary said the agency is a private company and Mr Munya has no legal right to make changes in its business operations.

The High Court on Friday stopped the newly appointed committee on the implementation of tea reforms from commencing its work, pending the hearing of a case filed by Kenya Tea Development Agency (KTDA).

Justice Pauline Nyamweya ruled that KTDA Holdings, though lawyer Benson Millimo, had met the threshold for an arguable case against Agriculture CS Peter Munya.
