Anyang Nyong'o has been embroiled in a bitter legal battle with his kith and kin. Inheritance and succession battles are the things that split up families And this is no different. Really. The multi-million shilling properties behind a succession battle involving Kisumu Governor Anyang’ Nyong’o and his two nephews is now known.

The court this week revealed thewhich includes flats on Nairobi’s Jogoo Road, 100 acres in the sugar zone of Miwani and prime plots in Kisumu’s Manyatta and Milimani estates. They also include land in Muhoroni and Seme Sub-County in Kisumu as well as cash in Cent Sacco Society.

Mr. Omondi filed the case under a certificate of urgency, saying he feared that Prof Nyong’o could sell or transfer the estate. Mr. Omondi said:

“The respondents have frustrated my efforts to access vital and relevant information pertaining my grandfather’s Estate.” 

According to Court papers, Prof Nyong’o and his sister Mrs. Nyagoy applied to be the administrators of his estate following the senior Nyong’o’s death. The Governor’s nephews want the court to revoke the grant of letters of administration and an audit of the estate.
