A number of properties belonging to billionaire entrepreneur and SportPesa shareholder Paul Wanderi Ndung’u have been listed for auction. Among them are a prime residential property in Gigiri, Nairobi as well as farms in Laikipia.
Sitting on 2.8 acres in the diplomatic hub near the United Nations office, the two-storey four-bedroom Gigiri house serves as an office and also includes a single-storey servant’s quarter block, carport and external kitchen.
The property has been listed for auction by Garam Auctioneers. The auction is scheduled for March 21.

Ndung’u and Asenath Wachira Maina have protested being pushed out and the transfer of the SportPesa brand to Milestone Games, a company associated with SportPesa CEO Ronald Karauri.
