Family feud escalates as ex-vice president Kavindele, son clash in court over property

0

The legal dispute between former Vice President Enock Kavindele Sr. and his son, Enock Kavindele Jr., has intensified, with Kavindele Jr. dismissing his father’s recent court claims as “frivolous.”

The case, heard in the Lusaka High Court, centers on Kavindele Sr.’s allegations that his son fraudulently obtained power of attorney from his 99-year-old grandmother, Maria Senda, to manage her properties.

Kavindele Sr. claimed he originally purchased the properties—identified as Lot No. 7273/M, Lot No. 7290/M, and Lot No. 7291—for his mother nearly 29 years ago and that she did not willingly authorise her grandson to take control.

Kavindele Sr. alleged his son drafted a contract to sell a portion of Lot No. 7273/M to buyers Yanjie Yan and Yu Lin for K3,750,000.

He seeks to cancel the power of attorney, which was registered at the Lands and Deeds Registry and requests an injunction preventing his son from managing the properties.

In his defense, Kavindele Jr., who initially filed the lawsuit, seeks an order requiring his father to hand over the property titles and cease interference with the estate.

He denied the counterclaims, asserting the power of attorney was legally granted by his grandmother and that he was fulfilling her wishes.

Kavindele Jr. argued the sale involved only a portion of the property, intended to meet specific instructions from the donor, not for personal gain and claimed his father was primarily concerned with controlling the sale proceeds.

“The plaintiff vehemently denied the defendant’s counterclaim in its entirety and shall show at trial the defendant had no proof to support his frivolous allegations,” Kavindele Jr. stated.
