Facts

Ramson Kiptonui Kirui, a customer of Kericho Water and Sanitation Company Ltd, filed a Notice of Motion seeking an injunction against Sirkelly Cheruiyot and seven others, including the County Government of Kericho, to prevent them from presiding over board meetings and receiving benefits.

Issues
