Even though Gospel singer Ringtone Apoko was arraigned on assault charges in a dispute concerning a multimillion dollar Karen mansion, his legal woes do not appear to be ended.
Singer Pamela and the Sudanese family of Kongkong Paulino Matip, Gabriel Paulino Matip, and John Paulino Matip are locked in a legal struggle over the title of the multimillion-dollar property known as L.R No 65555 (Karen).
In a demand letter drafted by their lawyer Musyoki Kimanthi, the Matips assert their right to the property that is currently in their father’s name.
Kimanthi Advocates’ three clients have accused Ringtone of illegally occupying, destroying, and depriving them use of their property in a demand letter dated Wednesday, July 26.
A portion of the letter reads, “Our clients are the legal and beneficial owners of the above-mentioned property which is now registered in the name of their late father, having bought the same from one Judith Guserwa sometime in 2010.
After their father passed away, the complainants say they traveled to South Sudan to attend his funeral and stayed there for a while to deal with life’s other pressing concerns.
They allege that they left a caretaker in charge of the Karen house and other valuables in the compound.
The Matips said they had sent money for upkeep of the property even after they learned it was now in the hands of a stranger, eventually identified as Apoko.
Kongkong Matip, one of them, visited Nairobi in 2016, went to the property, and was turned away. At that point, it was uncovered that you had gained admission to the property and been posing as the owner using means only known to yourself.
The complainants said through their attorney, “You even went ahead to make structural changes to the property, adding unlicensed structures within the compound and leasing the same to strangers.”
