Lydia Khaemba: The Looting First Lady Of Trans Nzoia County

Blogger Cyprian Nyakundi has exposed looting in one of the most looted and underdeveloped counties.

Kitale, the headquarters and biggest town in Trans Nzoia County remains as it was 10 years ago with nothing new but dilapidated infrastructure, failing economic prospects and disgruntled youths.

The madam boss, in fact, the second wife to the governor of Trans Nzoia Lydia Khaemba has turned the county coffers her own purse.

She has swindled women by being in the gang that has looted over Ksh22 million from the Sacco.

She bought a Mercedes Benz from the proceeds of crime, she colluded with fraudulent management of the Sacco to withdraw Ksh1.4 million from the Sacco. It is believed that the amount is the one she used to purchase the car.

And if the above is not enough, she is part of the criminal ring extorting youths. Boda Boda riders decry the hefty penalties levelled against them for petty offences, which mostly include entrapment.

If a boda boda rider is arrested, the criminal gang that answers to the first lady Lydia Khaemba asks for more than Ksh20k to be released.

Youths have suffered due to the incompetence of the Jubilee regime yet all the devolved units do is to make it harder for them to survive.

Who bewitched Kenya.

We join bloggers from Kitale and support their calls to have Lydia Khaemba arrested and her extortion ring dismantled.
