On Monday, a faction of the Jubilee party affiliated with former President Uhuru Kenyatta held their National Delegates Conference.

As this happened Interior CS Kithure Kindiki visited Shakahola Forest to inspect the ongoing investigations and exhumation.

Housing and Urban Development Principal Secretary PS Charles Hinga on the other hand became a sensation after his presentation on housing fund levy was characterised by him wiping sweat on his face.

This is even as drama ensued when Azimio leaders and former Mungiki leader Maina Njenga's supporters gathered outside the Directorate of Criminal Investigations headquarters.

They went on to show solidarity with him when he appeared for questioning.

The Star Newspaper team converged to bid farewell to Star Training Editor Victoria Graham.

Here are some of the photos that caught Kenyans' eye:
