A judge has ordered DNA tests to settle a bitter family fight over a dead politician's fortune. Justice Celia Nagawa ruled that several people claiming to be children of Max Choudry Lokwang must take scientific tests to prove their bloodlines. The former Cabinet Minister died in Kenya back in 1988 and left behind valuable properties worth millions. His alleged kids want their share of the cash and land that has been locked up for decades.

Henry Bitature Musinguzi and Margaret Sanyu filed court papers claiming they are the politician's biological children. They accused Joyce Choudry Loumo of stealing control of the estate by pretending to be the dead man's wife. The woman has been running the fortune since 1989 when she got legal papers to manage everything. Caroline Lokawa and Alex Lemu also jumped into the court battle demanding their piece of the inheritance.

The feuding families must get tested at the government lab in Wandegeya within one month. If anyone refuses the tests or if results prove unclear, the court will dig up the buried politician's body for more DNA samples. Karamojong clan elders protested against disturbing the grave because it breaks their cultural rules. The judge dismissed their concerns and ordered the estate to pay for all the testing costs.
