OMG! MIKE SONKO IS ON THE EACC "LIST OF SHAME" RELEASED BY THE SENATE, FIND OUT WHY!

Dr Mutua, on the other hand, is in trouble for buying 14 used Subaru vehicles for county executive committee members.
Five Cabinet Secretaries on the list had their identities disclosed over the weekend when they “stepped aside” as requested by the President to allow for investigations.
They include Charity Ngilu (Lands), Davies Chirchir (Energy), Felix Koskei (Agriculture), Michael Kamau (Transport) and Kazungu Kambi (Labour).

Mrs Ngilu is alleged to have colluded with Mr Evanson Waitiki, a Likoni landowner plagued by squatters, to inflate the market price of his farm by Sh110 million ahead of a sale to the government. She is also accused of scheming to drive a landowner off a parcel of land near State House, Nairobi.
Agriculture CS Koskei is accused of renting government land in Tigoni from the Kenya Veterinary Vaccines Production Institute to plant potatoes. EACC is looking into conflict of interest issues surrounding Koskei’s 100-acre potato farm. He is also accused of secretly allocating sugar import permits, demanding bribes from parastatal heads and intimidating those who resist.
Mr Kamau stands accused of illegally contracting a local clearing and forwarding firm to handle cargo belonging to the Chinese firm contracted to build the standard gauge railway. He is also alleged to have colluded in the irregular trashing of a road design “leading to massive embezzlement of funds”, manipulated road tender awards and directed billions of shillings of SGR-related in consultancy work to a firm associated with him.
The allegations against Energy and Petroleum CS Chirchir also relate to the tender and procurement process. In one deal, he is accused of trying to influence the award of a $500 million (Sh45.5 billion) Kenya Pipeline Company Tender to a Chinese firm in return for a $15 million (Sh1.4 billion) kickback to be shared with Nairobi senator Mike Sonko.
Labour CS Kambi is alleged to be involved in corruption deals at the National Social Security Fund. The main accusations revolve around the Tassia Phase II project, whose cost estimates were revised from Sh3.3 billion to Sh5 billion without the approval of NSSF’s Board of Trustees.


One of the more intriguing investigations involves Ms Marianne Kitany, the chief of staff at the office of the Deputy President. Apart from allegedly misappropriating Sh200 million, she is accused of diverting Sh100 million from a liaison office budget to “mobilise MPs” in the abortive campaign to impeach Devolution CS Anne Waiguru in June last year.
The EACC is expected to bring investigations into these and other cases to a conclusion within two months.
The commission on Monday formed a 130-member special team to expedite investigations and possible prosecution of CSs, PSs and parastatal heads who have stepped aside after being named in their status report.
