Hakuna Kutangaza! Court Bars Media From Covering Lusaka’s Child Upkeep Case

by Mustafa Juma

All media houses have been barred from covering Senate Speaker Kenneth Lusaka’s child upkeep case.

While ruling on an application that had been made by Lawyer Danstan Omari who is representing the woman who sued Lusaka, Nairobi Resident Magistrate F. Terer issued gag orders against all media houses barring them from covering the case.

“That a gag order is hereby issued to any print or electronic mass media in Kenya from açcessing, publishing, airing, narrating or commenting the case in any newspaper, journal, weekly magazine and TV or radio show,” the gag order states.

The case was coming up this Wednesday to confirm if negotiations between Lusaka and the woman have been fruitful.

Lusaka had earlier told the court he will not be challenging the paternity of the unborn baby he allegedly fathered with the woman who sued him for upkeep.

Through his lawyer Peter Wanyama, Lusaka told the court he has been in talks with the woman with a view to settling the case out of court.

Wanyama told Justice Antony Mrima his client is willing and ready to pay the costs of prenatal care.

In the case, the woman who claimed to have had an affair with the Senate Speaker for three years wants Sh25 million for the unborn baby.
