The High Court has opted not to hear a petition filed by businessman Francis Mburu who is seeking Sh12.1 billion in compensation from the government for allegedly taking over his land in Ruaraka, saying the matter ought to be handled by the Environment and Land Court.
Mr Mburu is valuing the compensation he is due for the land—which hosts two public schools— at Sh13.6 billion but says the government paid him Sh1.5 billion following a judgment in 2019.
