The High Court in Nairobi has suspended proceedings in a commercial dispute over the ownership of shares in the Sh60 billion retail chain, Naivas Limited, pending the determination of related appeals concerning the inheritance of the wealth of its founder, Peter Mukuha Kago.
The court halted proceedings in a suit filed by one of Kago’s sons, Newton Kagira Mukuha, stating that the dispute over Naivas shares is directly linked to unresolved succession battles involving the estate of the deceased founder.
