Mr Segior Lieman had asked the Environment and Land Court to commit Dr Kibunjia to six months in civil jail for allegedly disobeying an order to open an access road. The access road is said to fall within the Mtwapa Ruins, or the Mtwapa Heritage Site, which is listed as a monument. Mr Lieman contended that since July 30, 2015, the NMK had not taken any steps to open the access road. The NMK said it had no funds for clearing the bushes and trees along the access road. Accordingly, I decline to commit Dr Kibunjia as prayed.
