Ruto maintains ‘it is jail, deportation or journey to heaven’ as Dubai firm linked to tycoon withdraws Mumias case after president threats.
You must withdraw your legal claims or you risk going to jail, being deported, or going to heaven, according to President William Ruto’s scary three-step prescription for the court proceedings between creditors and the Mumias Sugar Company.
President Ruto on Wednesday stated that this is not a threat, but rather the way things will be.
One of the businesses contesting the lease of Mumias sugar to Ugandan miller Sarrai Group filed a letter with the Court of Appeal requesting to withdraw the lawsuit as the President continued his chilling message.
One of the players in the Mumias Sugar case chose to withdraw from the legal actions against Mumias, in what appears to be a retreat prompted by President Ruto’s contentious triple threat of jail, deportation, or heaven.
“Wale watu wanazungukana na ma media sijui na nani kuissue press conference you’re wasting your time. Mambo ya corruption will not be part of this country anymore. We are sick and tired, Kenyans are sick and tired, politicians who defend corruption should be ashamed of themselves, those giving defence to matters that is destroying our nation..,” said Ruto.

The president yet again reiterated his three-point warning.
“Mimi nataka niwaambie wezi wote na wakora na watangazia mapema na mchana… Watakoma na kama hawatakoma maneno ni tatu wahame Kenya, kama sivyo tutawapeleka jela ama kama wako na option ya tatu waende mbinguni…,” said the Head of State.
The Dubai-based Vartox Limited filed a notice of withdrawal of a complaint at the Court of Appeal opposing the leasing of the company to the Uganda-based Sarrai Group through its Westlands, Nairobi-based law firm Anjarwalla and Khanna LLP.
Take notice that Vartox Resources In, the third respondent in these proceedings, hereby withdraws its application dated December 25, 2022, it stated in the notice of withdrawal.
The company’s owner, tycoon Sarbjit Singh Rai, is entangled in a legal tussle with his billionaire brother Jaswant Rai, who owns West Kenya Sugar, over the 20-year lease granted to Sarrai and the manner in which Mumias sugar was handed to him.
