Contract law CIVIL APPEAL NO 431 OF 2021 MATHEW UPANGA MNKANDE VS SIMEDA PRODUCTS AND TRADING COMPANY LIMITED

CIVIL APPEAL NO 431 OF 2021 MATHEW UPANGA MNKANDE VS SIMEDA PRODUCTS AND TRADING COMPANY LIMITED

The respondent was not an independent party but a duly authorized agent of the lessee, acting within the scope of her authority. The lease contract was valid and enforceable, and the evidence did not prove that the respondent breached its fundamental terms. The appellant, by interfering with the respondent's management of the farm and instituting legal proceedings, breached clause 22 of the contract. The appellant failed to prove entitlement to the reliefs sought, and the trial court's dismissal of the suit was correct.
