This follows reports that the President Uhuru Kenyatta-led party owes arrears of close to Sh1 million to the owner of the house located in the posh Milimani Estate.

The owner of the house, the Kenya Farmer’s Association (KFA), has since deployed an auctioneering firm to aid it in recovering the money accumulated for 13 months, from May last year.

KFA through its lawyers Gatu Magana and Company Advocates has since contracted Nasioki Auctioneers to dispose of the party’s property contained in the palatial building in a bid to recover the rent.

“Urgently and expeditiously proceed to levy distress for rent on behalf of our client KFA Ltd towards the recovery of outstanding rent arrears of Sh939,600 as up to November 2018. Also collect your auctioneer’s charges from the tenant,” reads a letter addressed to the auctioneering firm.

The firm on November 1 notified the party to pay up the arrears within 14 days to avoid the looming auction, a notice that is now 10 days into expiry.

“You are hereby notified that the movable property is duly distrained and left in your custody for 14 days from today. At the expiry of this proclamation, the property shall be removed and sold at a public auction,” Nasioki Auctioneers wrote to the party, according to the Standard.

However, the company has lamented that it might not be able to recover the rent as the party’s property in the premises is estimated to be worth less than Ksh200, 000.

The party leadership in the County has since stood aside on the matter, with Chairman and former Nakuru lawmaker David Manyara saying that it has graduated to the national level.

Party Secretary-General Raphael Tuju is yet to speak on the issue.
