Like the seller the buyer has rights under Kenya law, which are as follows;
1. The
buyer has a right to reject the goods; buyer’s first right or remedy
where the seller fails to transfer property or deliver goods; right to
reject goods, this goes together with repudiation. Repudiation
is only possible when the seller’s breach goes to the root of the
contract either because it is a breach of a condition or by its very
nature because it renders the contract meaningless. Note that the right to reject is separate from the right to repudiate. When
you repudiate you say the contract does not exist but when you reject
you are saying yes there was a contract but there is something wrong
i.e. the goods are defective etc. if you opt for
repudiation you open yourself to all sorts of problems so the prudent
buyer would not opt for repudiation but would opt for rejection and then
pursue damages. This option is that until a certain
reasonable period, there is still time for the seller to deliver
conforming goods but when you repudiate you close the door for the
seller to make good.
