The Court of Appeal has dealt a blow to Teresiah Wairimu, the widow of former Starehe MP Gerishon Kirima, after declining to suspend orders removing her as an administrator of his estate and directing the family to share the multi-billion shilling fortune he left behind.
Justices Daniel Musinga, Francis Tuiyott and Pauline Nyamweya found that Wairimu had an arguable appeal against Justice Patricia Nyaundi’s decision, but ruled that reinstating her or displacing the newly appointed administrators would deepen uncertainty that has persisted for more than 14 years.
