Holding
We find no merit in the appeal and dismiss it with costs.
Facts
The appellant's father sold land to the respondent, but the size of the land was disputed. The South Nyanza District Adjudication Objection Board and the Minister for Lands and Settlement confirmed that the appellant's father sold only two acres of the land.
Issues
- Whether the appellant's father sold more than two acres of land to the respondent
- Whether the appellant's father was aggrieved by the decisions of the Objection Board and the Minister
Reasoning
The record of the proceedings before the Adjudication Board clearly shows that the appellant's father did not know the size of the land he sold to the respondent. The appellant's father could not have sold the entire piece of land including the portion that had his first wife's grave.
Outcome
Appeal dismissed with costs
