President Uhuru Kenyatta and Cabinet Secretary Farida Karoney, Ministry of Lands and Physical Planning

Three weeks ago, President Uhuru Kenyatta and Lands Cabinet Secretary Farida Karoney launched the National Land Information Management System, a digitized way to keep land records.

The system was touted as a way to address fraud and corruption cases that have dogged land transactions in the past.

However, currently, there appears to be more backlog than it was in the past with a manual system.

“This digitalization project at Ministry of Lands is not working at all. I paid stamp duty before the launch of the new system Ardhisasa and my lawyer has been to the lands office every day this week to have the documents lodged for registration of a change but no progress at all. Despite the public notice below (attached) it appears the lands staff are doing nothing to clear the backlog of transactions that were already ongoing. Why would the CS not ensure that there was a transition period? Is she aware that Kenyans are greatly inconvenienced?”, one of the system’s users complained.

Is this sabotage by the ministry staff? Cnyakundi.com asks.

We were told that once the system goes live, Ardhi House will no longer accept manual land documents at the Nairobi Registry as they will do away with manual land transactions.

How can Kenyans be helped now?

Stakeholders from the Institution of Surveyors of Kenya (ISK) and the Association of Licensed Land Surveyors of Kenya (ALLSK) have lauded CS @Faridakaroney for instituting reforms at Min. of @Lands_Kenya, and vowed to support digitisation prog. to ensure its success. #Ardhisasa pic.twitter.com/OqunVTDK2y

A client that likes takeaway food was shocked to receive what she termed as substandard food.

“Please expose bolt foods they are allowing some restaurants there to hawk substandard food. I ordered chicken and chips at Shh450 only to be served, “chipo mwitu” and stale chicken”, said an irate client

Bolt Food is a service by the Taxi-hailing service Bolt. The service was launched in March 2021, following continued need to tap into the food business during the covid–19 pandemic

At its launch, the company said it onboarded 200 restaurants including KFC, Big Square, Pizza Mojo, Urban Gourmet Burger, Debonairs Pizza, Steers Ohcha Noodle Bar, The Chef House, Wings Kenya Alchemist, Shokudo Japanese, Barista & Co, Mercado, Awash Ethiopian restaurant, Charlie’s Bistro and Bao Box, among others.

So from which of the above named restaurants did the food come from?

This is not the first time and it appears few online businesses are legit in Kenya.

In March 2020, cnyakundi.com received information from a client of Uber Eats who claimed that he has been severally food-poisoned by their deliveries.

“That’s what you guys don’t get!!!. I don’t need a refund!!!!! I need you to have the same food safety standards you maintain on Europe & USA & Asia…I could as well g to the hospital right now…get the documents to show that I am sick and sue UBER for negligence”, he wrote back at Uber Eats

CAPTION: Inspekta Mwala actor Constable Ngure

Inspekta Mwala actor Bonventure Wangara has been reported missing.

Wangara who portrayed the character of Ngure in the Citizen TV show allegedly went missing on Wednesday this week.

His brother who spoke to multiple Nairobi tabloids said the 37-year-old was last seen near Athi River area where his home is located.

Those who saw Wangara before he disappeared say they did not unusual with the long-time actor.

In the well-received Inpsekta Mwala crime comedy show, Ngure played one of the junior police officers at “Kona Mbaya Police Station” that was always a beehive of activities.

Although he respected and feared his boss Mwala, Ngure often found it hard staying out of trouble thanks to his mischievous colleagues in uniform.

As of the publishing of this post, Ngure was yet to be found.

Kindly circulate the poster provided by his family below and check back for subsequent updates on the story.

CAPTION: Jubilee Party Vice Chairman David Murathe

For the better part of the week, word has been going around of a supposed major battle within the ruling Jubilee party that has left some nursing some heavy casualties.

On one side is Uhuru Kenyatta’s long time confidant David Murathe alongside sharp strategist Raphael Tuju pitting against the Harambee House duo of CS Fred Matiang’i and PS Karanja Kibicho.

The tag of war has escalated so high that the officials from Harambee House are said to have engineered the withdrawal of security and driver assigned to David Murathe as a way of “punishing” him over their differences in opinion during the recently concluded by-elections.

According to a source from DP Ruto’s camp as per Dennis Itumbi, Murathe and his squad want the security department led by Matiang’i and Kibicho to reduce their interference during campaigns.

They feel that excessive use of police force might have played a role in their recent flooring in polls.

They also want less participation by sitting governors during campaigns, arguing that folks like Kimemia and Nyoro brought their baggage into the latest campaigns, which made it “harder to convince people”.

On the same day reports of the split within the ruling party, a local daily indirectly hinted that Murathe was recently blocked from accessing the State House where he had gone to seek an audience with President Uhuru and explain himself over the recent by-election losses.

Such events have led to the further spread of rumours that Uhuru might be planning to discard his long-time friend and political ally with the unnecessary drama and attention he attracts on himself and the party unofficially reported as one of the reasons why the head of state has grown tired of his presence.

Over the last few weeks, Murathe’s name has dominated the headlines after the Jubilee Vice-Chairman was accused of influencing an Sh4 billion KEMSA tender to a medical supplies firm.

The National Assembly Public Investments Committee (PIC) investigating the Sh7.8 billion scandal, questioned Murathe’s association with Kilig Limited.

This was something his boss did not appreciate.

CAPTION: Mombasa Governor Ali Hassan Joho

A domestic airline has stopped Mombasa Governor Ali Hassan Joho in his heels and sent him back to his lane after the coastal politician missed his flight and tried to pin the blame on them.

Joho on Friday accused Fly Safarink of alleged unprofessionalism and uncouth behaviour.

He took to social media to air his dissatisfaction with the airline even though he did not reveal exactly what caused the disagreement.

“In this ever increasingly competitive world, the aviation industry has no place for such unprofessional, unreliable and uncouth behaviour as exhibited by Fly Safarilink,” Joho wrote on Facebook.

In response to the governor, the airline noted that a complaint was not lodged so they could launch an internal query on the matter.

The airline did not waste time reminding him that he was late and that it would have been unfair to inconvenience others who were onboard.

According to Safarilink, the flight was scheduled to depart at 4 pm, and all passengers are required to check-in at least 30 minutes before departure time.

However, the furious county boss arrived at the airstrip four minutes after the plane had taken off.

“Dear Hon. Hassan Joho, Thank you for your feedback and although you did not share your complaint we respond as follows. Our scheduled flight from Vipingo Ridge, to Nairobi, departs at 16:00 hrs and the check-in counters close 30 minutes before the flight departs,” noted Safari Link.

The domestic carrier offered to rebook the governor’s ticket to another date without any penalties, but it appeared the wealthy politician did want to accept their offer.

He must have been in a bad mood because in other news today, he was sentenced to 60 days in jail or a Ksh 250,000 fine for contempt of court.

The governor was charged alongside Changamwe MCA, Bernard Ogutu.

Justice Munyao Sila, who delivered the verdict on Friday, stated that breaking the law is not heroic and urged leaders to set a good example.

Despite being found culpable, Justice Munyao stated that the Governor who appeared in court showed no remorse.

In addition to the fine, the governor will be held liable for any damages suffered by the plaintiff as a result of the incident.

Jacaranda Hotel owned by the late Njenga Karume’s family has been between a rock and a hard place since his demise.

Saddled with debts and family squabbles, the hotel has been under threat of auction over a Sh250 million debt owed to GT bank.

Staff now complain about non payment of send off package.

“Hi Mr. C. Nyakundi. Please help me and on behalf of others 150 staff of Jacaranda Hotel, Westlands, Nairobi. They have not payed  since (2019) on retirement to date and other are not working but still on payroll. Thanks in advance”, a former staff wrote.

Karume died in 2012 after battling cancer, leaving behind an estate estimated to be worth around Ksh40 billion among the assets being the Jacaranda Hotel.

Struggling Jacaranda Hotel Fails To Pay Staff For Three Months

The hotel was set to be auctioned on March 12, 2021, but got saved by a whisker.

The management of the hotel that sits on a 3.5 acres piece of land in Westlands Nairobi took the loan and a further overdraft from a bank which is yet to be repaid.

KRA also demanded the hotel to offset Sh50 million and clear the remainder within three months as of February 2021.

The tax man has originally demanded over Sh90 million tax arrears.

The pension department based at Bima House Harambe Avenue has not been kind to pensioners.

Retirees accuse the agency of neglecting them.

“Morning Cyprian, please highlight intimidation going on at Treasury, Pensions department located at Bima House, under the eyes of it’s director Michael Kagika. They closed the office more than two months now due to corona and advised people to seek their services through calls and social media pages. Unfortunately they neither pick calls or answer to messages”, a pensioner said

Civil servants are the laziest lot, but not when it comes to looting.

Many jokes have been made about their work ethics, where one reports to the office, hangs their jacket on the chair and leaves.

The poor work ethic contributes to get rich schemes like looting through overpriced tenders, lame seminars and trips just to fleece the govt.

All these is done at the expense of working for the citizens; the taxpayers. But foreigners are given first class service.

“Can this government of the day civil servants stop treating fellow Kenyans as foreigners in their own country?”, the pensioner asks

Nairobi based blogger Abdullahi Musa

Nairobi based blogger Abdullahi Musa has been arraigned in court over extortion claims.

Musa was arrested on Sunday evening along Lenana Road and detained at the Central police station overnight. On Monday morning police presented him at Milimani law courts where they were allowed to detain him for seven more days to pave way for investigations. According to the charge sheet, Abdullahi Musa was accused of extorting business Ibrahim Khalif by demanding money to pull down a post he had published on his Facebook page.

The court was told that between 20th April 2021 and 25th April 2021, at Nairobi County, having knowledge of written contents and with intent to extort money from Ibrahim Khalif, the blogger sent him the messages posted on his page.

He will now spend one week at Central police station awaiting being formally charged next Monday. The blogger who initially worked for Mombasa County Governor Ali Hassan Joho before they fell out. He then began using his page to disparage Joho who has ignored him.

Detectives believe that Musa has been running an ocean syndicate where he posts defamatory messages mainly targeting Muslims before demanding money to pull down the post.
Ibrahim told police officers that Musa had demanded Sh5 million to pull down a post linking him to irregular deals in Nairobi County.

Good morning bro,

My name is (withheld). I am asking you to consider using your activism network & spirit to help a section of us (KSL students) get justice.

Some of us wrote our Bar Examination in 2018 & 2019 & either didn’t pass all the papers or didn’t sit for all the papers because of financial constraints.

Those of us who didn’t pass a paper or those of us who didn’t sit for all the papers had hoped to sit for resits/special examination in the subsequent years, depending on the availability of finances to cater for the same.

First forward, COVID-19 broke out in Kenya in March 2020 & so those of us who had hoped to sit for resits/special examination in July & November 2020 didn’t sit for the same as Council for Legal Education (CLE),  the examining body didn’t offer any exams given the prevailing circumstances.

That means even the class of 2020 which had been admitted in KSL in January 2020 is yet to sit for their examination, which they would have ordinary done by November last year, under the normal circumstances.

Now CLE opened a registration window for April/May 2021 exams, so that the 2020 class which ought to have done its papers in November 2020 & any other interested person could register. Nonetheless, the registration window was so tight (13 days) that most of us didn’t get money to pay in time.

Our understanding was that CLE would also offer exams in July (which is always the month for resits/special examination),but CLE has refused to open that window period so that those of us who missed the April/May registration can register for July 2021   resits/special examination, as it’s always the case.

In a nutshell, we are asking CLE to appreciate the harshest COVID-19 economic situation that affected everyone & understand that it’s an insanity to refuse to register us for July examination, on the account that we ought to have registered for April/May 2021 exams, with the 2020 class.

Thousands of us are affected. We can’t afford hiring an Advocate to represent us.

Please, blog this for us.

The post “The Council of Legal Education should consider our plight” a Kenya School of Law student pleads appeared first on Cyprian Is Nyakundi.

The Kenya National Chamber of Commerce and Industry (KNCCI) is in dire straits after the Chamber President Richard Ngatia and the Acting Chairman of the Nairobi Chapter Mr Geoffrey Kimani are accused of embezzling funds.

In order to carry out the heist, Mr Kimani is accused of frustrating seasoned businessman Jimnah Mbaruh who was the chairman of the Nairobi Chapter. Mr Mbaruh resigned out of frustration leaving the crooked Kimani in charge in an acting capacity.

The plan to oust Mbaruh was just the first part of the plot.

Mr Kimani with the blessings of Chamber President Ngatia moved in with illegally appointed directors to push more people who were not aligned with his looting agenda out.

In total disregard of the KNCCI Constitution Kimani appointed 7 new directors with the blessing of Richard Ngatia.

“KNCCI constitution states that Co-option of Directors can only be done by the Board at County Level.  7 new directors were Co-opted without the proper procedure being followed or vetting as per Constitution of KNCCI. In fact, Three of the newly co-opted Directors are not even fully paid up Members of the NAIROBI KNCCI”, said a source who spoke exclusively to us.

Efforts to correct this anomaly has been hard for the law-abiding leaders in the chamber as every legal and amicable way has been shot down.

Illegalities

As per the Chamber Constitution, you cannot hold office if you have not paid a subscription for two years. The directors do not fit this criterion.

The KNCCI Constitution is also clear that Co-opted Directors should be appointed based on Professionalism, Gender and people with Disabilities.  Priority has not been given to current Nairobi County KNCCI Members. Which shows how flawed the process is.

The source further says that a complaint to KNCCI’s National Dispute Resolution Committee was made because trying to solve it within the county where Mr Kimani is an interested party was not the best route; however, even after following the laid down procedures in seeking an amicable solution to the problem within KNCCI Nairobi as per the Memorandum of Association, the Director, a Mr Theuri was forced to drop the complaint without any solution.

A Board Meeting of the newly Co-opted 7 Directors was called by the Acting Chairman Mr Kimani and the agenda was to discuss the 5 elected Directors and vote them out.  They refused to go for that Board Meeting as the 7 Directors were co-opted illegally, have no voting rights. They asked their Lawyer to write to Mr Kimani as the Acting Chairman to the effect that the Nairobi KNCCI Board meeting was null and void as the new Directors had no powers to make decisions on behalf of KNCCI Nairobi Members.

Richard Ngatia

In a Whatsapp message seen by us, a disgruntled member writes, “I wish to inform NAIROBI KNCCI Members that Mr. Kimani as the Acting Chairman, is using Director, Jesse Muraya who is the Administrator of the Whatsapp KNCCI Nairobi County Group, and other Co-opted Directors doctoring Board Meeting Minutes taken earlier to prove that the 7 Co-opted Directors were legally Co-opted and the 5 Directors consented”.

In the illegal plans, the Whatsapp warning singles out a Mr Thinguri Warwathe, who is described as a Well known KNCCI Spoiler, who is being used by Mr Kimani to execute these illegal plans.

Mr Thinguri has been a longtime hitman and spoiler as evidenced by the success of his illegal plans at the KNCCI Kiambu Chapter.

The tussle is about the control of resources.

The wrangles led to Mastercard asking for a refund of its Sh400 million.

“Mastercard has since written a protest letter to them to refund the money they ate. 400m was allocated to the Entire chamber of the whole country. It was being disbursed at our head office under the watch of Ngatia. The likes of Kimani pocketed part of the money even before it was disbursed to poor struggling business  Members. Kimani is fighting other vocal board members  to leave for him so that he can swindle all the money we have brought in the account -members money”, wrote a source

Mr Kimani is accused of trying to change bank signatories but failed. The relentless crook has tried to do that thrice but the bank refused.

“They have tried 3 times but the bank refused. Two of the Directors they want to remove are signatories they were told to bring them to sign out. Ngatia wrote a letter directing the bank to allow them to be signatories but all in vain”, we learnt.

The Nairobi County Chamber has been awarded Sh7 million by Center for International Private Enterprise  (CIPE) as a grant. This new money is said to be eyed by Ngatia and his clique of crooks.

They want to loot the chamber to death, but first, they want the vocal and legally co-opted directors out.

CAPTION: Eric Omondi and Betty Kyallo hosting the “Big Quiz Show” on KTN

Overrated Kenyan comedian Eric Omondi and washed-up media personality Betty Kyallo have been left in hot soup after KTN cancelled the controversial “Big Quiz Show” following weeks of not airing on TV.

This was after several complaints issued by the show’s participants who claimed to have won different amounts in the competition but are still yet to receive a single penny for their efforts.

This first came to light through “Tea Master” Edgar Obare, who shared the story of one anonymous participant that disclosed their grievances concerning the lottery show.

She claimed to have won Sh1 million but was yet to receive her money.

Consequently, the lady’s claims influenced people to conclude that the show is nothing but a scam conning unsuspecting Kenyans their hard-earned money.

The victims accused Betty Kyallo and Eric Omondi of colluding with the company to defraud them.

The Big Show Limited management team has since come out to claim that their organization is entirely to blame and solely responsible for the late payment for their frustrated winners.

As seen in a statement shared by comedian Eric Omondi on Saturday, the manager added that Kenyans, as well as participants, should not castigate Eric Omondi, Betty Kyallo, and The Standard Media as they are not responsible for uncleared payment as they were only contracted as service partners.

Betty Kyallo’s UNDERWHELMING “TV Comeback” Sparks Divided Opinions On Her Plummeting Career

On the issue of pending payouts amounting to millions of shillings, the firm remained dodgy in their response with a vague instruction to winners of various cash prizes who are yet to receive their awards to get in touch with their “customer service team”.

Whether or not they will get to receive their money back, only God knows.

As for Eric Omondi and Betty Kyallo, they will now have to bear the burden of being the face of what looks like yet another Kenyan public scam.

Some of the participants who spoke to Nairobi tabloids insist that they hold the two media personalities to blame for having influenced them into the alleged racketeering scheme.

Most had the misinformed assumption that the two nationally recognized brands could not possibly be involved in dealings with such suspicious entities.

How The Show Worked

The Big Quiz Show Limited conceptualised the Big Quiz Show as an interactive live TV gaming show.

It contracted The Standard Group to be the broadcast partner, paving way for the premiere of the show on KTN Home in March.

Hundreds of players registered for The Big Quiz Show using their mobile phones, with which they also paid a weekly fee and answered trivia questions from the comfort of their homes.

To win, players were ranked based on the accuracy and speed with which they sent in their answers.

Participants only needed to register via text (SMS JOIN to 23774) and answer simple multiple-choice questions that would be beamed live on TV.

The registration fee cost Sh150, so you can imagine how much they made in the few weeks the competition ran.

CAPTION: 2013 Presidential aspirant Jaffer Isaak

A Kenyan veteran ex-soldier has appeared in a controversial video doing rounds on social media where the former army man turned politician threatened to kill among others, the Directorate of Public Prosecutions (DPP) Noordin Haji whom he blames for allegedly ruining his life.

In the footage, Jaffer Isaak Sora who once ran for president in 2013, promises to personally deal with judges, police officers, top security organizations (like the NIS) and a section of journalists who he says are the reason he is a fugitive today.

Isaak says that he has given up all other hopes of getting justice and hence took the decision to take down everyone who arrested and tortured him during his time in Kenya one by one.

In 2019 the former army man was arrested with 450kg of bhang and was charged in a Marsabit court for trafficking 450kg narcotics valued at about Sh11.5 million.

He was nabbed at a roadblock near Marsabit town driving a Toyota Prado Land Cruiser that was towing a trailer carrying the drugs.

He denied the charges and ever since then he has been a fugitive trying to fight off the case.

He stated that he continues struggling with the physical, emotional and mental issues, that was inflicted on me by police torture in Kenya.

“I am ready to be a criminal. I will do whatever it takes to get my revenge,” the politician, vowed in his video shared below.

According to Jaffer, he has major beef with DPP Noordin Haji because he “robbed him of his dignity” when he took him to court in 2019.

“DPP I cried to you. I wrote a letter to you and I spoke to you many times on the phone. I told you my life will be destroyed. My name will be destroyed. And in 2019 when I got robbed of my dignity, you still took me to court. Shame on you and God will punish you and your children, Fuck You All,” he concluded.

Vihiga County Governor Dr Wilber Ottichilo

Governor Wilber Ottichilo has continued to rip Vihiga County apart for the four years he has been in office. Whether, through looting public coffers dry or employment, Vihiga is a disaster in waiting, with the MCAs eating from the same pot with Ottichilo, thus unable to initiate any impeachment against him.

He has set aside a team from his sub tribe of Bunyore in key county departments, who help him to steal while he has sponsored for the impeachment of four County Executive Committee Members from the Maragoli and Tiriki sub tribes.

Whereas all Maragoli and Tiriki senior officers have been moved to about three departments, Banyores have remained stagnant in their very lucrative departments where they have overseen incompetence of the highest degree and stealing that has never been witnessed anywhere else.

They have overseen irregular of a 2-acre piece of land for governor’s residence, which was purchased at Sh23 million in the rural area where an acre goes for Sh1 million, and the design of the residence billed at Sh24 million.

Health workers employed irregularly in 2018, have not been paid for years, in one of the most scandalous hiring to ever have been witnessed.

Recently, a mortuary that was under construction collapsed and killed one person, injuring nine others, while it had been paid upfront Sh45 million, and it had not been approved by NCA. No one has been suspended because Ottichilo’s cronies were the ones working on it.

There is the infamous scandal of skyrocketing wage bill since Ottichilo stepped in office having hit about Sh200 million per month, whereas he has sacked over 2000 people. He continues with staff audits every year, but there is never any change. His fighting of the staff has put him at odds with everyone.

Ottichilo has also squandered Sh750 million in a scam beautification programme at the county headquarters, which has left it uglier than it was earlier on.

While looking at how Ottichilo has perpetrated nepotism in the County, below are the Banyore who calls shots in his government.

1. Alfred Indeche, Amos Kutwa and Prof Inonda Mwanje

The three are the senior most CECs who since joining the government, have overseen the greatest mess in their departments. They remain holding the most lucrative departments in the county, Finance, Health and Transport respectively, which ironically have failed a great deal and have been termed out to be problematic and chaotic but the holders never have known show cause letters from Ottichilo. Indeche is Okaya’s cousin. Kutwa is an uncle to Indeche. Mwanje is a cousin to Okaya.

2. Noah Okaya

She is the governor’s sweetheart and First lady of Vihiga county. Managed to employ nearly all the top close relatives she knew to have any qualifications.

Anything she says, the governor listens and follows.

She was described by the County Assembly as unfit to hold office, but Ottichilo travelled with her to Canada and has completely failed to let her go.

Currently at Job Group S in Nairobi, earning Sh200, 000 for doing nothing as a liaison officer.

3. Franklin Esipila

Ottichilo appointed a village mate, a classmate and a buddy whom they were circumcised together in one of the rivers in Central Bunyore on the same day as chair County Public Service Board, despite being beaten by one Maragoli lady Catherine Edalia, who wouldn’t be confirmed.

This has been the worst Board Chair ever that has overseen worst employment practises and has attracted the highest number of court cases. He is a total failure, incompetent and the biggest let down to ever step into the limelight in Vihiga County.

4. James Otari

Governor employed a P1 teacher and an alumni of Siriba TTC as chief of staff to Job Group S, against all the possible Civil Service guidelines and qualifications needed.

5. Jairus Amayi

He is the economic mis-adviser to Ottichilo. He’s a perpetual loser in all the positions he ever tried vying for in the county.

He has further been favoured by Ottichilo by virtue of coming from same village and given other responsibilities as Municipal Manager for 2 years and Head of Service Delivery Unit, despite there being qualified Maragoli and Tiriki who can hold these positions too.

6. Victor Wetende

Has a diploma, but has been employed to a job that requires a degree holder who has had over ten years’ experience in the communication field. During his tenure, the county has witnessed the highest level of incompetence in communication, with him concentrating on any available avenue to steal. At onset of Covid-19, he signed for imprests of Sh2 million in a single day, where he managed to purchase a vehicle that is famously known as Corona Car at the county.

7. Julius Ochiel

He conned Musalia Mudavadi in ANC and got his wife nominated as an MCA, then ditched his position as Vihiga chairperson. He then convinced the heartless Ottichilo to sack Kabatesi Kibisu a Maragoli while in hospital, so he be appointed.

Road sign: Vihiga county assembly

8. Chris Amwayi and Frank Matika

Irregularly appointed to Job Group R. currently paying the price for that as they are earning negative salaries and depending on any little coin Ottichilo would have a heart to give them to survive.

These first ten officers are the top most advisers to Ottichilo, but they all hail from Bunyore. In their morning briefings, they can speak in their mother tongue without any hitch. As compared to former Governor Moses Akaranga’s government, we can say Ottichilo is the worst nepotistic leader this country is unfortunate to have.

9. Mary Anyienda – Chief Officer Education and Health departments

She is one of Ottichilo’s flower girls. Currently doing an illegal thing being a substantive accounting officer in two departments, Health and Education, despite there being other people from other sub tribes who can do the same. This is something not even seen at National Government.

She’s the biggest thief to have ever existed. From the 115 ECDEs constructed, Anyienda has been getting upfront payments of Sh350,000 from each in the name of taking it back to Ottichilo.

She made the county lose Sh31 million through a fake deal with KLB a deal they worked on with Ottichilo, Noah Okaya and some few Nyores at KLB.

10. Tunya Etale – Chief Officer, Transport and Infrastructure

He’s the commander of all illegal road works and bridges in the county. He’s key in issuance of non existence certificates of completion to fleece the county. One case in Bunyore revolves around a non-existent bridge they paid Sh4.9 million.

11. Pamela Mahila – Chief Officer, Agriculture

A maternal aunt to Noah Okaya. She failed in her attempts to be a CO but because of Okaya, she was appointed. In her previous job at KK, she was in Job Group H, a divisional agricultural officer, but now she enjoys Job Group S.

Occasioned loses in agricultural department including stealing donor contributions that were to benefit residents of Vihiga.

12. Livingston Imbayi – Chief Officer, Finance

Related to Okaya through the wife. He’s the key person paying irregular payments in the county as he controls the Finance department. He’s currently on the run after courts issued warrant of arrest for him and his CEC Alfred Indeche.

13. John Ong’oda

Favoured by Ottichilo so much that he currently holds position of Sports administrator, head of Vihiga FM and also, Governor removed Bongo Ngoseywi a pure Maragoli breed to put him as head of Public participation, meaning there are no other people who can do these jobs.

14. Washington Olando

Governor is hell bent in ensuring him being made as director at Job Group R, when his papers only allowed him to be at Job Group G.

15. Abisai Amatalo – Chief Officer TVET.

Appointed through Okaya’s favouritism. Only listens to Ottichilo and no other officer.

As Ottichilo fights Maragolis and Tirikis, we hope he will also sponsor these Nyores to be impeached as they have demonstrated all the necessary incompetence. Of course, unless Ottichilo measures incompetence to mean success.

The woman now wants ways to come back home.

“Sasa anataka hii story iende Internet to attract attention ya watu aone kaa anaeza saidika akuje Kenya”, the good Samaritan added.

Recently, Malcom Bidali, a 28-year-old security guard, was arrested on May 5 and was placed in custody “for violating Qatar’s security laws and regulations”, Qatar’s Government Communication Office (GCO) said.

Mr Bidali had aired his dissatisfaction with the working conditions in the country. He blogged about his experience after self-teaching himself about the rules, regulations and laws of the country.

CAPTION: Gen Edward Katumba Wamala moments after his failed assassination attempt

Uganda’s former Minister of Works and Transport, Gen Edward Katumba Wamala on Tuesday morning survived a scary assassination attempt on his life after a group of gunmen opened fire on his vehicle.

His daughter Brenda Wamala Nantongo and driver Haruna Kayondo were killed in the attack.

The three were driving to Kampala in a vehicle with military plates when they were intercepted by four gunmen on motorcycles who showered bullets at the car before fleeing the scene, witnesses said.

Reports indicate that Gen Katumba and his daughter were heading for the burial of their close relative in Najjanankumbi along Entebbe road.

The unknown assailants are believed to have been riding motorcycles that approached the minister’s car in a busy street and shot at least seven times.

Ugandans reacted with shock to the apparent assassination attempt that will raise fears of insecurity in this East African country that has seen similar attacks in recent years.

A video that later circulated on social media showed Katumba in total distress outside an SUV, with his light-coloured trousers splattered with blood.

Social media images also showed bullet holes in a car window and casings on the ground.

It took the help of a group of boda boda riders near the scene who thought quickly and helped rush General Katumba to the hospital.

Here is the footage below that captured the potential life-saving moment.

CAPTION: Mzungu-funded activist Boniface Mwangi posing next to the recently erected Francis Atwoli Road: He has vowed to bring it down

Over the last week, social media was awash with reactions following the installation of the controversial “Francis Atwoli Road” sign in one of the city’s suburbs.

The signpost in Kileleshwa was later vandalized by local residents just days after it was erected.

This did not go down very well with the Central Organization of Trade Unions (COTU) Secretary-General whose name had been etched on the city road as a way of honouring him.

In a series of social media posts, an angry Atwoli put on notice vandals who brought it down and even warned that CCTV cameras had been installed in the area adjacent to Dik Dik Gardens in the plush Nairobi estate.

He added that the law would take its course on those involved in what he called “vandalism and impunity”.

Fast forward to a few days after the re-election of the road sign and it has now become apparent that Atwoli’s tough talk of CCTV cameras in the area actually held no weight and was just a threat to scare away potential fixers of the grave mistake that overseen by Nairobi Deputy Governor Anne Kananu.

According to faux activist Boniface Mwangi, a spot check in the area revealed that Atwoli’s supposed CCTV cameras are actually just a group of thugs hired to sleep around Dik Dik Gardens while “watching” the road sign.

Mwangi, who had just returned into the country from another one of his Muzungu-funded trips managed to capture some of the faces of the hooligans under Atwoli’s payroll.

“His CCTV is goons. We shall avoid confrontations but the sign will come down,” he wrote.

One radio reporter went all the way to get a scoop on a swingers club near Copenhagen when she had sex with a man she was interviewing.

Louise Fischer, 26, can be heard moaning during the on-the-record intercourse, part of a two-minute segment that aired on Radio 4 in Denmark.

“I don’t have a boyfriend, that definitely made it a lot easier,” Fischer told the German publication Bild, according to a translation by The Daily Mail.

“My mother just thinks it’s funny and laughs, my father thought it was really cool.”

The X-rated segment focused on the reopening of a swingers club named Swingland in Ishoj after the lifting of COVID-19 restrictions – and Fischer discussed the reactions to her unorthodox interview style.

“Most of them were very positive, they thought it was brave and cool,” she reportedly said.

“Others think that I’ve crossed a line in journalism.”

A Thursday tweet from Radio 4 linked the segment.

“Warning: It got hot and wet for both our reporter and the guests,” the tweet stated.

At one point during the segment, full of sounds of bodies slapping, the journalist asks the man she is having sex with if he can tell her what he’s seeing and he responds a “delicious woman,” the English-language Copenhagen Post reported.

It hadn’t been the plan ahead of the report to participate in the club, reports said.

Tina Kragelund, Radio 4’s head of news, told BT that the station approved of the move.

“I feel like I just think it’s cool when the reporters try to make the stories in a different way,” she said.
