CORRIDORS OF POWER

A FORMER GOVERNOR, who is allegedly involved in fraudulent activities, is in financial distress. We are told banks are breathing down his neck, threatening to auction his properties as he has been unable to service loans taken either by his companies or himself. The distressed man recently checked into a hospital and hopes to use the admission to buy more time and get some mercy from the banks that are driving him to despair.

PANIC HAS GRIPPED one of the counties following graft investigation by detectives. The probe is at an advanced level, sources say. We are told the inquiry has affected the governor so much he no longer spends time in office. Could he be among the suspects? Well, our mole whispers the man recently convened a strategic meeting of all senior staff at his office. It is said he instructed them to be alert, “know how to behave” and avoid betraying each other in case the sleuths handling the matter come knocking.

WHAT BECAME OF charged ground mobilisation by a governor from the western part of the country that had promised to end the political careers of some? The man had started a wave that had sent many quaking in their boots, but it has since fizzled out. A fly on the wall claims the man was being egged on by a top man, who has since fallen on his own sword. The plan was to poison the ground for certain politicos in a broader scheme to wrest power from their hands. But with the decapitation of the head of the snake, we are told the man’s ground game ran out of steam.

A FAMOUS TENDERPRENUER with no record of delivering quality work was overjoyed at recent changes in a certain high office. Why? The man has been reportedly telling all who care to listen that a certain personality was a stumbling block to him getting his payments. He believes no one can stop him now. The unscrupulous trader boasts he has close links with the right people in the right places, and that getting big tenders and receiving prompt payments will be a phone call away from now on.
