Facts of the Case
Background
The parties entered into a transport agreement where the appellant was to supply buses for the respondent's touring clients. The respondent refused to pay, claiming the agreement was concluded with an employee who lacked authority and had an interest in the appellant company. The directors of the appellant are Elisha Munuwa and his wife Thamary Regina Munuwa. The respondent contested the contract's validity on grounds of fraud as Munuwa dealt with himself.
