A son of the founder of a leading supermarket on Tuesday accused his eldest brother of presenting a forged will in court in a bid to disinherit his siblings of their father’s multibillion-shilling empire.
Naivas Supermarkets managing director David Kimani Mukuha dismissed the will presented by his eldest brother, Mr Newton Kagira Mukuha, as a “forged paper”.
Mr Kimani was testifying in a succession case in the High Court, Nakuru, in which Mr Kagira has objected to the administration of the estate.
Mr Kagira claims the will was written by the late Peter Mukuha Kago, but Mr Kimani told Justice Anthony Ndung’u that his brother wanted to “harvest where he has not planted”.
Mr Kimani said the will their father wrote, which is not the contentious one, was clear on how the property he left behind was to be shared.
