CBK Sells Cyrus Jirongo's 103-Acre Farm to Recover Sh495 Million Defaulted Loan

CBK Sells Cyrus Jirongo's 103-Acre Farm to Recover Sh495 Million Defaulted Loan

The Central Bank of Kenya (CBK) has sold 103-acre land belonging to former presidential aspirant Cyrus Jirongo for Sh53 million in an attempt to recover a loan he owes collapsed Dubai Bank.

At the time of its collapse, the former Lugari MP had borrowed Sh495 million from the bank through his three companies, but defaulted the loan.

The property registered to Kuza & Allied Ltd was sold to Ninja Transporters, who emerged as the highest bidders. It was auctioned by Valley Auctioneers, an auction firm hired by CBK .

The land, which is located at Chepkoilel, Uasin Gishu County, was put on sale for Sh70 million in July last year, but failed to attract a buyer, blamed on the timing of the sale, which came as country was heading to the August 8th polls.

The politician lost a court case where he was seeking to block CBK from putting his company under receivership over the Sh495 million the firm owed to Dubai Bank.

Kuza Farms and Allied Limited is among the six firms that CBK placed under receivership in 2017 after they were found to have defaulted on loans, as Dubai Bank went into statutory management in 2015.

The High Court had last year declared Jirongo bankrupt, after it found that he was unable to service his debts totaling to Sh700 million.

However, the bankruptcy orders were lifted two weeks later after he challenged the decision, arguing that it was prejudicial to his candidature in the October 26th repeat presidential poll.

    How I Got My Loan Today!!!

    Hello everyone,

    I am Faye Miller by name, am writing this Testimony because am really grateful for what Sabinhelps did for me and my family, when I thought there was no hope he came and make my family feel alive again by lending us loan at a very low interest rate of 2%. Well I have been searching for a loan to settle my debts for the past three months all I met scammed and took my money until I finally met a God sent Lender. I never thought that there are still genuine loan lenders on the internet but to my greatest surprise i got my loan without wasting much time. my credit score is cool now. so if you are out there looking for a loan of any amount i would advise you to email the legit loan company via email: { sabinhelps@gmail.com} and be free of internet scams. thanks… Faye Miller from California, USA.

    My marriage has been deteriorating for some time so it was bound to unravel. I was his loyal, faithful, supportive and trusting Wife. He had an additional wild side that went out of control. The last incident was when I found out that he was having an affair 2 weeks before our 14th wedding anniversary. Out of the blue my husband just sprung the divorce talk on me. I was so hurt and being an independent woman, I thought I could cope with being single. It was so hard to move on, so I had to reach out for help. Our marriage therapist thought that "something" was not right about my husband. I went online and I found out about Dr Agumba and his good spell work reviews. I ordered a Love spell. 2 days later in the morning around 09:34 AM, I was totally shocked when my Husband called me telling me how much he missed me. His spell worked on me so fast and my husband has been so loving, Natural and I'm having a happy marriage after using his love spell. If you are in a loveless and unhappy marriage that cannot be salvaged, believe me...There is light at the end of this tunnel. Dr Agumba can also cast death spells, resolve court cases, bring your homosexual partner back, and bring back your lesbian partner. You can reach him on his WhatsApp +2349032173881
    or email him now on dragumbasolutioncenter@gmail.com

    When I applied for a loan to buy my building materials as a small business owner in a difficult situation, my banks said they couldn't help me. This Loan Company sat down with me, listened to my situation and decided it was worth the risk. Here we are 5 years later and I just renewed my loan for another 7 years. I could not have purchased my building without the help of miss susan James loan company and I will always be indebted to them for giving me a chance. If you are interested for a real loan lender contact miss susan through email: susanjamesloanfirml07@gmail.com or Whats-app:+1(480)762-8979
