A former MP who fell out with Deputy President William Ruto over 2022 succession politics is at it again, however, this time around, his target is ODM leader Raila Odinga. In the run-up to the 2017 General Election, the former nominated legislator had written to DP Ruto demanding that he automatically picks him as his running mate for the 2022 presidential race. He is now behind a risky online campaign in which he has positioned himself as Raila’s Deputy President-designate. The man even recently booked an appointment with Raila at his new Chungwa House office in Nairobi's Lavington area to further the talks on his becoming the former Prime Minister ’s running mate — if Raila runs.
A youthful Catholic priest in the Eastern region has been exposed for entertaining not-so-secret lovers. Last weekend he was spotted in a drinking den on the outskirts of town drinking himself silly while in the company of two lasses. Women congregants are angry with the man who is expected to be celibate and a role model for young men. Instead, he behaves just like so many other reckless young men. They have demanded that he be transferred to a different parish — or perhaps to a monastery where he can reflect — because he has scandalised their diocese. Is the temptation of worldly pleasures too irresistible for the poor fellow? Maybe he needs a different more secular calling.
A governor from Rift Valley has set tongues wagging in his county. Reason? Before he became county boss, the man had six-pack abs, or at least his belly was flat. But in the last few months, the man has become a globetrotter with a taste for fine food, among other things. As a result, he has developed a huge belly. Could the governor be giving up on his exercise regime or he has started tasting the benefits of being the top dog, including the attention of ladies?
What is going on at a police station in Kiambu county? A source tells Corridors that a number of police officers in the station are working with suspects to cover up cases of child defilement, which are rampant in this particular town. The source goes ahead to say that recently a senior police officer was forced to make an impromptu visit to the station and demand fresh and thorough investigations into defilement cases. However, one of the cops has already threatened the parents whose child was defiled, warning them not to say a word. Is this a case where the whole station must be overhauled, or might the corrupt officers suddenly become moral men who respect the law and protect women and children?
