Anne Waiguru's Sh80 Million Kitisuru Mansion Set for Auction
Kirinyaga Governor Anne Waiguru’s Kitisuru mansion is set to be auctioned to recover rent arrears owed to developers of Kihingo Village.
This comes after the High Court gave the developers—Frame Consultants—a greenlight to auction the Sh80 million house over the debt amounting to Sh4.5 million.
Former Tetu MP James Gethenji and his brother Gitahi Gethenji, who are the directors of Kihingo Village, owe Frame Consultants the amount.
Justice Alfred Mabeya ruled that Kihingo Village is still the rightful owner of the property since Waiguru was yet to complete payment for the house, thus Frame Consultants can auction or attach the mansion.
“In this regard, Frame Consultants can either attach or auction the property to recover its debt,” Justice Mabeya ruled.
Last year, Waiguru moved to court to block Kihingo village from evicting her from the property over Sh44 million rent dispute. Waiguru insisted that she is the owner of the property and not a tenant.
The governor told the court that she paid Sh40 million in cash for the property in September 2015 and had an agreement with KCB Bank to clear the remaining Sh40 million through a mortgage.
Kihingo Village however denies receiving any payment from Governor Waiguru, threatening to evict her if she failed to pay rent for the five years she has stayed in the house.
Kihingo Village had served Waiguru with a notice requiring her to vacate the property by February 29th, 2020.
Waiguru accused the company of delaying the KCB mortgage deal by failing to deliver completion documents.
“The delay in completion of the said agreement has been occasioned by the respondents who have failed to deliver the completion documents to enable the bank to register a charge against it before releasing the balance of the purchase price,” said Waiguru in court documents.
“… I am not a tenant in the suit property but a purchaser who has so far paid half the purchase price in line with the provisions of the lease agreement dated 25th September 2015.”
High Court Justice Elijah Obaga issued temporary orders stopping Kihingo Village from evicting Waiguru and directed the parties to settle the dispute through an out-of-court agreement.

This is a Joke. You mean Wauhuru can't afford Shs.4.5 million? Rubbish; Hogwash; Bullshit.😒
You know, if everybody can borrow a leaf from know-it-all aka "MjuaJi" or "Mlachake," the world would be a better place to be. Eat what is yours, use what is yours, usiwe na tamaa na kisicho chako. Tosheka na kidogo chako upate amani ya kudumu. Waiguru ni mwizi, na kivuli hichi cha wizi kitamfata, kitamwandama, kitamkereketa kereketa, kitamchovya chovya, kitamtafuna tafuna, sio yeye tu, walakini hadi kizazi cha nne. Diposa unaona kwamba aliyoyatenda Moi miaka arubaini iliyopita, wanao, wajukuu na vitukuu wake wanahangaishwa kwa makosa babuye aliyoyatenda. Vilio cha wanyonge, akina yahe na wachochore, vinamfikia Maulana moja kwa moja.

Ongea na beau akusambazishiye hiyo balance of 4.5 Million using mpesa furthermore anapoteza 2.5 billion through corruption surely that is peanuts.Akutumie chini ya maji you are now a married woman although that does not make a difference nowadays.Look at Sally Kosgei that is where your life is headed once we retire your “beau” next year .Happy retirement madam utatoboa maisha ya ushago huko Kirinyaga or will you finally face justice for stealing
80M is pocket change to Waiguru.
You are simply assuming Waiguru had Shs 4.5 million! She may be sleeping hungry in an expensive house that she can’t afford to pay! But again Mali ya uma ni bure kabisa! If you live by stealing, others will find a way to steal from you!
...nazirudie wenyewe...NYS suppliers of air happened during your watch....
HUYU HATA SIJUI NISEME! Hivyo ndivyo 'Kunaendaga'! I'm sure those people actually received the 40 million but Waiguru will be at pains to explain how she got the money. Pwagu huata PWAGUZI. THERE IS NO HONOR AMONG THIEVES!!! USIWAHI GUZA MALI YA UMMA- WATU BADO WANACHEMSHA MAWE VIJIJINI NA WEWE UNAKULA PESA ZAO SMH
She was probably afraid to buy property to avoid eyes of EACC. Now that EACC didn't pay attention after Raila sanitizer she wants to convert rent into mortgage retroactively.
I pray for the day auctions will be illegal in Kenya. Think about it an 80 million home auctioned to recover 4.5 million, the other day I saw a 2billion hotel auctioned to recover 28 million, it’s insane and straight up government aided robbery. When they sell the properties, do they give the balance to the people they stole from? AMA they pocket everything? Why play the lotto if you can get an auctioneer’s license?
This is just a plan to fool kenyans that. That nothing compared to what happened on NYS Corruption saga. I can steal 10million but I pretend I cannot pay 30k to fool kenyans 🇰🇪
