What you need to know:

  • Two widows, Norah Olweny and Annah Wanjiru, on Tuesday moved to court seeking a second injunction to stop the burial of their late husband after they alleged that the first injunction issued by resident magistrate Faith Munyi on December 9 was ignored.
  • They accused the deceased’s first wife Phelesia Olweny of sidelining them in the burial arrangements.

A Nakuru court has put on hold the burial of a Nakuru tycoon after disagreement emerged between his three wives over the process.

Resident Magistrate W. M Kitur on Friday issued orders stopping the burial of Engineer Eliakian Washington Olweny, the proprietor of Evans Sunrise Hospital in Nakuru until the case is heard and determined.
