The long-awaited judgement on whether a relative of Narok Governor Patrick Ntutu will be allowed retain ownership of 4,720 acres of land located inside the Maasai Mara Game Reserve has been postponed to a later date.
The matter was to be decided on Tuesday at the Narok Environment and Lands Court (ELC) by Justice Charles Mbogo but has been pushed to February 20, 2025.
The advocate representing the County government Mr. Ian Wambua Mbithi, from Okongo Omogeni & Advocates law firm said the extension follows late filing of submissions by some parties. "The submissions by the AG were filed on January 22 which was very late, hence the court needs time to go through the submissions," he said.
He reiterated that they will abide by the directions of the court and wait patiently for the scheduled date, as the submissions are now with the court. "We know the court will be guided by the evidence presented before it and the law.
