A court in Makueni County has placed a son of Kenya’s first black army boss Major-General Joseph Musyimi Ndolo on his defence in a criminal case linked to a long-standing land dispute.

Andrew Ndola Ndolo faces a dozen charges, including assault, burglary and robbery with violence after he allegedly raided two homesteads located on a disputed parcel of his father’s ranch at Kalimbini B Village near Sultan Hamud Township in Makueni County.
