Holding

The Claimant's suit is dismissed as she sued the wrong people and was dishonest.

Facts

Claimant Esther Wangui Maina sued the Respondents (Session Clerk and Presbyterian Foundation) for unpaid wages and other benefits. She claimed she was a cleaner-cum-gardener at P.C.E.A Kirathimo Church from 2010 to 2016.

Issues

  1. Whether the Claimant was an employee or a volunteer
  2. Whether the Claimant was entitled to the claimed benefits

Reasoning

The Claimant was a volunteer at the Kirathimo Local Church, not an employee of the Respondents. She was dishonest in her testimony and the court found her suit untenable.

Outcome

Claimant's suit dismissed
