The High Court has invalidated two wills allegedly written by late tycoon Gerishon Kirima. Judge Isaac Lenaola further directed that the family appoints an administrator within seven days failure to do so the court will appoint an administrator to distribute the property. Kirima’s widow Teresia Wairimu moved to court to challenge the will presented by the tycooon’s children allegedly authored by the deceased while undergoing treatment in London which disinherited her of some property. Wairimu presented another will authored in Kenya which she argued was the authentic one. Justice Isaac Lenaola in his ruling said that the court could not make a distinction between the two wills presented in court - one by his daughter and another by his widow. According to Justice Lenaola, the court could not verify which one was written by Kirima and how he could have done so in his ill health. Kirima, a wealthy businessman died in 2010 in a South African hospital after a week in a coma.
