Sons and daughters of the late prominent Uasin Gishu farmer Jackson Kibor at the weekend ganged up and evicted his youngest widow from a 300-acre farm in Moiben.
This comes amid an ongoing fight over Sh16-billion property inheritance.
The incident comes barely a week after the High Court in Eldoret issued an order barring the Kibor siblings, their servants, agents, or any other person acting in their name from trespassing into and carrying out any survey activities on the expansive farm.
Mafuta Farm is where Ms Eunita Kibor relocated to after she was allegedly evicted from her matrimonial home.
Mzee Kibor succumbed to Covid-19-related complications in March 2022 at the age of 88, and his family, comprising his three widows and 29 children, have since been fighting over sharing of the vast estate he left behind.
The property battle is currently before the High Court in Eldoret.
Lady Justice Emily Ominde last week further warned Kibor’s children led by Loice, Philip, Magdaline, and Albert Kibor against evicting or dispossessing Eunita from the said property.
"Once all the directions are actioned, a mention date before me shall be fixed by the High Court deputy registrar," ruled Justice Ominde.
The succession case before the court has Kibor’s first two widows and their children on one hand, and the embattled youngest widow on the other.
In the weekend development, the Kibor siblings are said to have hired youths to kick out their father’s youngest wife.
The drama unfolded when the siblings stormed the property with hired goons and directed Eunita to leave or be ejected from their father's property.

As the attempted raid on her home was going on, another group of hired men with tractors was deployed to plow a section of the expansive land.
The mission was, however, halted abruptly when Ms Eunita made her way to a nearby police station where she reported the incident.
"You have illegally occupied this land before succession, you have a house in Chepkoilel, what pushed you to occupy this land without family consent,” questioned Ms Loice Kibor.
Loice accused her stepmother of allegedly disposing of some of her late father's property, including movable assets worth millions of shillings without the consent of other family members.
At the police station, Eunita claimed that her stepchildren had constantly been fighting her until recently when they allegedly tried to force her out of the land, which she said she has called home since the death of her husband.
She vowed to stay put at Mafuta farm, claiming that she had nowhere to go with her children after she was kicked out of her matrimonial home in Kebenes where the late Kibor was laid to rest.
She claimed she was kicked out of the 1,300-acre Kebenes land four days after burying her husband.
Ms Eunita lashed out at her stepchildren for pursuing her to the current property, terming their action a provocation of the highest order.
She called on the government to provide her with security, fearing for her life.
"My life is in danger as my stepchildren have vowed to harm me if I do not vacate the parcel of land where I am currently staying with my young children," she lamented.
"It is unfortunate that my stepchildren ganged up and kicked me out of my matrimonial property where I buried my husband while I was still mourning his loss.
She claimed Kibor’s eldest son has since taken over the property.
