Nakuru tycoon’s property case to be heard in three days
Ms Annah Wanjiru Olweny (left) and Ms Norah Atieno Olweny address the press at the Nakuru Law Courts on December 14, 2016, when they sought orders to stop the burial of businessman Eliakim Washington Olweny.
His first wife, Ms Akoth, filed a succession suit in 2018 seeking to be granted letters of administration of the estate.
But Ms Atieno and Ms Wanjiru moved to court objecting the application by Ms Akoth.
The two accused Ms Akoth of failing to disclose to the court that they were also entitled to a share of the estate.
The High Court in Nakuru has moved to expedite a succession dispute pitting three widows of a former Nakuru businessman in a bid to save his multi-million estate from wastage.
In a bid to speed up the case, Justice Anthony Ndung’u on Tuesday set three days for hearing and determining the matter before an administrator is appointed to manage the estate of the late Eliakim Washington Olweny.
