A bitter fallout between two children of Moi-era Cabinet minister John Joseph (JJ) Kamotho and their mother contributed to the financial distress that eventually culminated in the siblings being declared bankrupt over Sh4.83 million in legal fees.

The High Court declared Marianne Nyokabi Kamotho and David Waweru Kamotho bankrupt after they failed to settle legal fees owed to lawyer Paul Maingi Musyimi, who represented them in their long-running fight with their mother and sibling over the inheritance of the late politician’s Sh250 million estate.
