Media tycoon fights Kenyatta kin over prime Nairobi land

Media tycoon SK Macharia has escalated his protracted land dispute with President Uhuru Kenyatta’s cousin, Ngengi Muigai, with the filing of a case in court seeking to stop the National Land Commission (NLC) from adjudicating the matter.

Mr Muigai has since 1991 fought Mr Macharia and two other businessmen — JG Kibe and Solomon Wilson Karanja — for allegedly denying him his equal share or 25 acres of a 100-acre piece of land near Nairobi’s Karura Forest.
