Super Metro Ltd v County Government of Nairobi & another

Super Metro Ltd v County Government of Nairobi & another (Judicial Review E160 of 2026) [2026] KEHC 13069 (KLR) (21 August 2026) (Judgment)

The court held that the applicant had an existing authority to access the terminus, had paid the requisite fees, and was blocked without prior notice, reasons, or an opportunity to be heard. The respondents filed no response to controvert those facts. The impugned action was therefore procedurally unfair, irrational, and unreasonable, violating natural justice and the Fair Administrative Action Act, so judicial review reliefs were warranted.

  • Fair administrative action
  • Natural justice
  • Procedural fairness
  • Unopposed application
  • Revocation of permit
