Equity Bank granted permission to proceed with fresh valuation of businessman Peter Mugambi Maina’s property in Mombasa before auctioning it to recover a Ksh 54 million debt.
The bank had previously attempted to auction the property three times but each attempt attracted low bids, prompting the lender to seek court approval for a more favourable sale process.
Earlier valuations in 2021 and 2022 placed the property’s market value at Ksh 25 million, with a forced sale value of Ksh 18.5 million but the best bids received during the auctions were much lower, ranging from Ksh 12 million to Ksh 12.5 million.
The court also allowed Mr. Maina 60 days to negotiate a private sale before the bank could proceed with another public auction.

Auditor-General Nancy Gathungu flags CBK for irregularities in the Ksh 14.5 billion tender awarded to a German firm Giesecke+Devrient Currency Technologies GmbH (G+D) for printing new currency notes.
The report reveals that CBK failed to follow the required procurement regulations by not appointing a special committee, as mandated under the Public Procurement and Asset Disposal Regulations of 2020.
CBK Governor Kamau Thugge admitted that the procurement was conducted under the approval of the National Security Council and the Cabinet, citing risks of currency shortages, particularly of the Ksh 1,000 note but the absence of the special committee raises concerns about potential insider dealings and collusion.
The deal involves printing 2.04 billion banknotes over five years.
The agreement follows the exit of the British firm De La Rue which had previously handled the printing but closed its Nairobi operations due to a lack of orders.
De La Rue’s shutdown resulted in job losses and financial setbacks.
