Court Halts Wedding After Businessman Files Injunction in Longstanding Dispute With Ex-Wife

A high-profile wedding was dramatically stopped after a renowned city businessman secured a court injunction, citing an unresolved dispute with his ex-wife. The unexpected ruling, delivered just hours before the ceremony, left guests stunned and the couple devastated as legal complications overshadowed what was meant to be a joyful event.

The Injunction and the Dispute

According to court documents, the businessman argued that the wedding could not proceed due to an ongoing property and custody dispute involving his former spouse. His legal team insisted that certain marital agreements and obligations had not been settled, prompting him to seek urgent intervention from the court.

They emphasized that the injunction was not meant to embarrass anyone but to ensure that due process was respected

.On the other hand, the bride’s family has accused the businessman of weaponizing the court system to interfere with personal affairs, claiming the injunction was driven by malice rather than legal necessity.

What Happens Next

The matter is expected to return to court in the coming days, where both parties will present their arguments. Only after the court rules on the dispute will the couple know whether the wedding can proceed

.The incident has sparked widespread debate on social media, with many Kenyans weighing in on the intersection of personal relationships, wealth, and the justice system.
