Holding

The court found that Parcel No 4886 is a subdivision of Parcel No 709, and therefore, the defendants' land does not boarder Parcel No 4886. The court ordered the defendants to vacate the land.

Facts

Francis Wanderi sued Joseph Mbijiwe and four others for trespass, construction of semi-permanent structures, cultivation, and fencing activities on his land. The defendants denied interference with Wanderi's land and claimed their land was Parcel No 634, while Wanderi claimed it was Parcel No 4886.

Issues

  1. Ownership of land parcels
  2. Trespass and construction activities

Reasoning

The court determined that the land surveyor's report established that Parcel No 4886 is a subdivision of Parcel No 709, and thus, the defendants' land does not border Parcel No 4886.

Outcome

The defendants were ordered to vacate the land.

Orders

  • Order for the defendants to vacate the land
