A LAWMAKER WHO has purportedly not
been seeing eye to eye with a powerful state
official threw a bash to celebrate a recent
newspaper headline that severely criticised
the officer. The man allegedly hosted the gathering in a city liquor establishment, where
he celebrated the exposé on the official’s
incompetence. Those in attendance say he
bought several copies of the newspaper
and hired youths to distribute them in the
official’s home county. He reportedly claimed
the headline vindicated his assertions that
the powerful officer was incompetent. He implored the appointing authority to take action
against the official.

the affluent counties has supposedly succumbed to the antics of his senator. Sources
reveal the county chief has allegedly given
in to the lawmaker’s demands for millions
of shillings in exchange for ceasing attacks

governor resisted the senator’s demands.

A GROUP OF MCAs from a cosmopolitan
county is reportedly demanding accountability from some of their own following alleged
betrayal. The ward representatives accuse
a colleague of turning against them at the
last moment. They had allegedly planned to
introduce an impeachment motion against
their ‘stubborn and corrupt’ governor, but
certain ward reps secretly negotiated with
the county leader for kickbacks to protect
him. The discontented MCAs have now launched a search for their colleagues, who have
been missing for a week.

A RENOWNED POLITICAL figure from
Western is reportedly a disturbed man
after he missed out on a CS position in the
latest Cabinet changes. The man, who has
been out in the cold for years, had hoped to
land a lucrative CS slot in the broad-based
government. His hopes were amplified by
the newfound friendship between President
William Ruto and opposition leader Raila
Odinga. However, his name did not appear
in the changes announced last week. Those
around the politician supposedly say he is
disturbed and confused after missing out on
the position, despite promises by his party
honchos.
