Controversial singer Alex Apoko commonly known as Ringtone was issued with a notice to vacate his Runda home within 10 days or risk being thrown out.
The proverbial 40 days of a thief finally reached for Ringtone in September after an administrator came knocking with an eviction notice after it was established that he fraudulently acquired the Runda property.
AGN Kamau Advocates issued a notice to Ringtone to leave the Runda property within 10 days in a letter dated September 28th 2021.
According to documents, the Runda home which is situated on parcel number L.R. 7785/94 previously belonged to Mona Ingegard Bjorklund, a Swedish national who died on July 5, 2007.
The property measuring 0.537200 hectares has been in Bjorklund’s name since 28 May, 1979, according to the Lands Registrar.
Daniel Carling, the administrator of Bjorklund’s properties, filed a case in court seeking to repossess the property from Ringtone.
In court documents, the administrator accused Ringtone of trespassing upon the multimillion shilling Runda property.
“The provisions of the Law of Succession Act mandatorily requires the administrator of the said estate to collect all the assets thereto and thereafter deal with the same in accordance with the said provisions. It is well within the knowledge of the said administrator and your good self that at all material times you wrongfully, unlawfully and without any color of right whatsoever trespassed upon the estate’s property designate L.R. 7785/94 IS NO. 33637 You continue with such trespass to date Our instructions are to give you notice which we do hereby do requiring you to cease with your acts of trespass forthwith and to hand over the said property to our client through us within 10 days from the date hereof,” the letter read in part.
Ringtone had earlier claimed that the Swedish national left him the Ksh500 million Runda property but later stated that he bought it.
The singer had earlier been exposed as a kingpin of a wash wash cartel that targets property which lie idle.
Well, Ringtone is still staying at the Runda mansion three months after he was issued with the eviction notice.
The controversial singer hosted a party at his Runda house on December 27th and he invited online media personalities to cover the event.
