Why Omari Agrees With Ruto That Gachagua Should Return His Brother’s Wealth

In this Court Helicopter Explainer, we break down why William Ruto may be legally justified in questioning the distribution of property belonging to the late Nderitu Gachagua. Using Section 29 of the Law of Succession Act, we explain who qualifies as a dependent and why priority is typically given to spouses and children. The key issue raised is whether Rigathi Gachagua, as a brother, met the legal threshold of dependency at the time of the Governor’s death in 2017. We also examine deeper legal questions around the validity of wills—especially those made shortly before death—and whether factors like mental capacity, medical condition, or public policy could justify reopening the case. Can such a matter be reviewed or appealed in court despite being concluded? This episode separates law from politics and explains why the dispute may ultimately need judicial intervention to determine what is fair for the widows and children.
