Jacob Ochola, the 62-year-old man claiming to be the late president Mwai Kibaki's first born son, has moved to court seeking official recognition from Kibaki's kin and a piece of the former Head of State's family estate, reportedly valued at billions of shillings.
Ochola, through his lawyers Omoke Morara and Peacela Atim, filed the petition in Nyeri on July 15, 2022 before Justice Florence Muchemi.
He wants the court to compel the former president's children, Judy Kibaki, David Kagai, Jimmy Kibaki and Anthony Githinji, to reveal whether his name was included in a will he alleges was drafted by the former president before his demise.
He also wants the court to determine who will be appointed as administrator of Kibaki's estate and for the allocation process to commence as soon as possible. In the court documents, Ocholla expressed fears that he may be excluded from the distribution process owing to the fact that he was allegedly ignored by Kibaki’s family when he attempted to reach out to them on the same.
“That the Citor has attempted to reach out to the Citees multiple times but his efforts have not been successful. The Citor is afraid that the Citees might proceed with the succession process without involving him and he might be left out of the estate of the deceased despite him being entitled to a share of the estate,” read the court documents in part.
The Court has since ordered Kibaki's family to accept or refuse the probate of the alleged will or show cause why letters of administration of Kibaki’s estate should not be granted to Ocholla. They have also been ordered to file their responses within 21 days.
“Take notice that in default of your so appearing and accepting probate of the said will, this court may proceed to grant letters of administration of the said estate to Jacob Ocholla Mwai, your absence notwithstanding,” reads a letter referenced ‘citation to accept and refuse probate’.
The case will be mentioned on September 19, 2022. Ochola, who was born in Nairobi’s Kaloleni estate on July 22, 1960, claims to have grown up not knowing that he was Kibaki’s son.
From then on, Ochola claims they remained in constant touch with Kibaki.
