Both parties in the dispute testified before Justice Mabeya, claiming firm ownership.

Muhinyuza testified in court on Thursday, December 21, about how he trusted Koome and decided to invest his business with him.

He testified that he couldn't register the corporation in Kenya at the time because he lacked the necessary documents, so he relied on Koome, whom he claims misled him subsequently.
