Court freezes Nairobi properties linked to Mohamed Khalif

Court-ordered freezes just locked down several prime Parklands properties tied to a sitting governor while the anti-graft agency digs into how the land was obtained.

EACC secures property preservation orders
  • Justice Teresa Murigi granted the freeze on February 2, 2026, after the Ethics and Anti-Corruption Commission filed under urgency.
  • The EACC asked the High Court to protect the properties until its main application gets a full hearing.
  • An inter partes hearing is set for March 5, 2026, to decide what happens next.
Mandera governor named in the probe
  • A Parklands flats project on parcel LR No. 209/12673 is reportedly linked to Governor Mohamed Adan Khalif.
  • Khalif and his agents are barred from accessing or transacting on the property for six months.
  • That restriction falls under Section 56(3) of the Anti-Corruption and Economic Crimes Act.
Contested land is completely off limits
  • Murigi's ruling blocks the company at the center of the dispute from any dealings on parcel LR No. 209/12670.
  • No one can enter, build on, sell, or transfer the property while the order stands.
  • EACC investigators are scrutinizing both the acquisition process and the developments on-site.
More parcels and respondents caught up
  • Three extra parcels, LR Nos. 209/12670, 209/12671, and 209/12672 got similar freeze orders.
  • Hanosa Developers Limited is among the respondents named in the proceedings.
  • Leah Bosibori and Alloys M. Maore are also listed as respondents in the case.
What the freeze actually means
  • Preservation orders function as a temporary protective measure during active investigations.
  • They do not amount to any finding of guilt or wrongdoing against the respondents.
  • The March 5 hearing will determine whether the court maintains, adjusts, or lifts the restrictions.
