Asha who is a minor entered into contract with Mr. Mwinyi to supply food and clothes to his dependants. Mr. Mwinyi supplied the same but Asha refused to pay for the same. State whether Mr. Mwinyi can?

Mr. Mwinyi cannot enforce the contract with Asha as she is a minor. Minors are not legally capable of entering into contracts, and any contract they enter into is considered voidable at their discretion. Therefore, Mr. Mwinyi cannot force Asha to pay for the goods supplied.

No, Mr. Mwinyi cannot enforce the contract against Asha because:

- Minors' Contracts: Minors (individuals below a certain age, usually 18 years old) are generally not legally bound by contracts. Their contracts are considered voidable, meaning they can be canceled by the minor at any time.

- Asha's Minor Status: Asha is stated to be a minor, which means she lacks the legal capacity to enter into binding contracts. Therefore, her contract with Mr. Mwinyi is voidable.

- Ratification: Minors can ratify (make valid) their contracts after reaching adulthood by expressing their intention to be bound by them. However, Asha has not ratified the contract in this case.
