Woman accuses Lusaka of neglecting unborn baby, demands Sh25m
Senate Speaker Kenneth Lusaka has been sued by a woman seeking Sh25 million payment for the upkeep of their unborn child.

Through lawyer Danstan Omari, the woman wants the court to compel Lusaka to accept and take responsibility for the foetus.
Justice James Makau certified the matter as urgent and directed that Lusaka be served with the petition.The judge directed that the case be heard on July 7.
