On October 3, 2019, a long-standing paternity dispute involving the late Ken Okoth and his alleged son from politician Anne Thumbi finally came to an end.
Following the conduct of three paternity tests, reports confirmed that Ken Okoth's alleged son is indeed his biological child.
Ken Okoth's widow, Monica, and his baby mama, Anne Thumbi, have reached a mutual agreement regarding the late lawmaker's son.
According to court records, both women have agreed to abide by the outcome of the DNA tests, which have come out positive.
Ms. Thumbi's lawyer, Danstan Omari, stated that the paternity issue has been resolved and that they will move to the High Court to determine the child's entitlements under the succession law.
"The next question is to decide what are the entitlements of the child under the succession law. We will move to the High Court to get school fees, and medical cover for the child," Omari said.
