Published on October 6, 2019, a dispute over a prime piece of land worth over Sh400 million in Nairobi has pitted Kenyan tycoon Jimmi Wanjigi against two other businessmen from Kitengela.
Wanjigi claims the one-acre land on General Mathenge Road in Wetlands, Nairobi, belongs to him, but the two businessmen, who are trading as Horizon Hills Limited, dispute this, each claiming to be in possession of the genuine title deed.
Wanjigi recorded a statement with Parklands Directorate of Criminal Investigations (DCI) officers on August 29th, accusing the two businessmen of colluding with lands officials at Ardhi House to grab the property from him.
However, the two businessmen failed to appear before the investigators to give their side of the story, and the case has since been taken over by the Land Fraud Unit at the DCI headquarters.
