Judgment BEATA NGANDAKU

Court
TANZLII

The petitioners are competent and have priority to be appointed as administrators because the 1st petitioner is the lawful wife in a monogamous Christian marriage and the 2nd petitioner is a close relative. The caveator failed to establish a legal marriage or sufficient grounds to object, and any property disputes must be resolved after the appointment of administrators.

The doctrine of estoppel does not apply as the legal incapacity to marry cannot be overridden by conduct.
