CIVIL APPELA NO 13863 OF 2024 Saidi Mbarapi
The court held that both the Mbande and Saku houses, as well as the plots at Kigamboni and Msongola, are matrimonial assets subject to division. The appellant made a greater contribution to their acquisition, justifying an unequal division. The marriage was irreparably broken down due to prolonged separation and evidence of adultery. The outstanding loan was not clearly linked to the matrimonial assets. The trial court's division was modified to reflect the parties' respective contributions.
