77-year-old widow in Sh1.9m battle to save house she has lived in for 44 years77-Year-old Veronica Mary Wanjiku who is fighting to save a house she has lived in for 44 years. Tripple Eight has estimated the amount they incurred on auctioneers at Sh1.9 million, which Ms Wanjiku says she cannot raise. Ms Wanjiku, who describes herself in court papers as a "widow of modest means," lost ownership of her house in Pangani Estate, Nairobi to Tripple Eight Properties. The order to have the widow and her family kicked out of her home was sanctioned by Magistrate R.A. Oganyo on March 30, 2015. She says she acquired her property 42 years ago through a mortgage given by National Bank of Kenya.
