Moi said he took his parental responsibility seriously. He wants the court to dismiss an application by Pluda seeking to commit him to civil jail for failing to pay her maintenance, terming it as mischievous and an abuse of the court process.
“It is not true that I have not paid school fees for my son," said Philip. "I have honoured all my commitments of my son.” He stated this is in an affidavit filed in court on February 19.
Moi wants the court to compel Pluda to produce the full statements of accounts to prove that he has paid her more than Sh10,735,588. The former President's son, who has previously found himself in trouble over the maintenance dispute accuses Pluda of failing to honour a consent they both entered into, that said no arrest warrant should be issued until all accounts are submitted in court.
Last month, Moi lodged an appeal in court to reverse orders requiring him to pay Pluda maintenance fee. He wants the order directing him to pay the monthly maintenance fee of Sh250,000 reversed.
Meanwhile, Pluda now wants police boss David Kimaiyo to be summoned to court for failing to arrest her husband. She is accusing police of failing to execute an order requiring the arrest of Philip Moi for disobedience of court order compelling him to pay maintenance fee for her and their children. In her application filed through lawyer Philip Nyachoti, she says the police boss, despite being served with warrant of arrest issued against Philip, has failed to execute it. The application for summon against Kimaiyo will come up for hearing on March 14. -The Star
