Looming auction: Major blow for Tuju in fight to block property seizure

Raphael Tuju's Dari Restaurant grounds. Mr Tuju lost control of his company, Dari Limited, over a loan owed to the East African Development Bank (EADB).

What you need to know:

  • Supreme Court bench says Tuju’s application was an afterthought with the objective of filling up gaps in his case. 
  • In the appeal, Mr Tuju has questioned the recognition and enforcement of foreign judgments in Kenya.

Former Cabinet Secretary Raphael Tuju has suffered yet another blow after the Supreme Court dismissed his application to give additional evidence as he fights to block the planned seizure of his property in Karen by a regional lender.

A Bench of five judges of the top court presided by Deputy Chief Justice Philomena Mwilu rejected Tuju’s application to adduce additional evidence, saying it was an afterthought with the objective of filling up gaps in his case.
