Consequently, grandsons to the late drug baron Ibrahim Akasha have now renewed calls to have the multi-billion property case pitting the family to be expedited. Some of Kamaldin Akasha’s children want the court to give them their share of their father’s empire. Dissatisfied with the manner in which his father’s estate has been handled since his death, he says his step-mother and uncle do not have powers to the estate. The Akashas dealt in real estate, houses, businesses, cars among others, but most of it slipped away from their hands, following the woes. The few remaining Akasha properties that are out in public knowledge include two palatial homes near Voyager and another near Nyali Beach Hotel in Mombasa.
