The party says despite taking over the KICC without compensation, the government purported to waive its responsibility to pay liabilities, bills and utilities due to the property including a debt of more than Sh400 million owed to the Kenya Power and Lighting Company Ltd.
The government has opposed the case arguing that having been established within public squares, KICC could not have been given to Kanu as such spaces are meant for public purposes.
A judge will on Monday decide whether the independence party, Kenya African National Union (KANU) should reclaim the iconic Kenyatta International Convention Centre (KICC).
Kanu filed the petition at the Environment and Land court four years ago seeking to get back the building after it was kicked out through an Executive Order on February 11, 2003.
