The High Court has allowed a case brought by the Consumer Federation of Kenya (Cofek) seeking to have Stanbic Bank refund revellers who attended the ‘Stanbic Yetu Festival’ on June 10, 2023, at Uhuru Gardens.

Hundreds of fans, who paid up to Sh30,000 for tickets, complained to Cofek about their negative experience, including alleged overcrowding, being rained on, poor sound quality, and screens not working.
