Former President Uhuru Kenyatta’s son has withdrawn a case he had filed against the state over his firearm license.
Jomo Kenyatta, the Chief Licensing Officer, the Firearms Licensing Board and the Attorney General reached an agreement over the gun license dispute and recorded a consent in court.
In the consent adopted by Justice Jairus Ngaah, the matter was marked as settled after the state agreed not to interfere with Jomo’s firearm license.
The state further said they will abide by the procedure set out in the Firearms Act in dealing with Jomo.
In December 2023, Uhuru's son and the state started negotiating on settling his firearm license case out of court.
Jomo through Senior Counsel Fred Ngatia told the court that negotiations were ongoing to settle the matter.
He asked the court to grant them a mention date for January 31, 2024, where they will possibly record a consent.
