These days it is only footnotes to punctuate well-known stories.
There are no secrets in theft! whether it is NHIF, KPLC, KPC! or even the local county CDF kitty!
The trouble with money, is it can't dissappear into thin air! When the time comes, and it will, for a man the calibre of Vladimir Putin or Paul Kagame to demand and get Wanjiku's money back, it obvious who will bring back the loot or die. Or, if the primary perpetrators are already dead, their inheritors and adjunct parasites. --There are no secrets who the thieves are, nor who their family and associates are. Money, it is capital, and it leaves a trace like a highway between two cities!
Even the most foolish investigator can not miss the way!
HERE IS ANOTHER OPEN CASE
So, in a country where we burn chicken thieves to death, and the Heszys of Dandora and Kayole are cult heroes head-hunting in the urban jungle, who really thinks Kenyans will not cheer when these CEO's are dragged in for the firing squad, live at Uhuru Park?
Chairman Ngatia of the KRA has given the law, like Hammurabi, and I am sure Kenyans of a firmer grip than the Handshake troupe, are working on it! ---Chicken thief, pick-pocket, violent robber, looter CEO, thieving minister or PS, it will be the same treatment: death, summarily.
I saw an activist complain yesterday about police extrajudicial killings in Nyeri. People laughed at him. I was petrified. There is an impatient monster out there, it cares neither for Miranda rights nor innocence until guilt is proven. It is chilling, but elites in the comfort zone always delude themselves they are immune to everything. --There high position is given and underwritten by God!
And then, sh!t!
Sleuths to quiz NHIF board members on 17-year plunder
National Hospital Insurance Fund Building Upper Hill
By Moses Michira | Published Thu, December 6th 2018
A new status report on three major scandals involving the National Hospital Insurance Fund has detailed how the insurer has been plundered since 2001.
It paints the picture of a helpless institution at the mercy of managers who did everything to abet the loss of billions of shillings meant to pay members’ medical bills.

The report dated November 26 was given to the directors during last Tuesday’s board meeting where a resolution was reached to suspend Geoffrey Mwangi as chief executive. It is believed that the report is part of the responses sought by the Directorate of Criminal Investigations (DCI) in an ongoing probe targeting past and present managers.
All board members have been summoned to give an explanation on the scandals that have rocked the insurer for decades. First was the controversial Karen land paid for in 2002 but which could be lost should a group of claimants have their way in an ongoing ownership battle in court. Peter David Leparakwo and a group of about 90 other people claimed they inherited the parcel as a gift of appreciation in the 1980s from a departing settler. However, the vendor that sold the land to NHIF in the report is listed as Kaskazi Traders – a private firm that was allegedly allocated the parcel only four months earlier.
A special board meeting of NHIF was held on January 16, 2002, which approved the establishment of a recreational facility on the land. A week later, the Government Chief Valuer was called in to assess the fair worth of the land and the value was given as Sh100.6 million.
Another board meeting was held on March 27, 2002, which approved a budget for purchasing the land and developing the facility, at Sh95 million and Sh85 million respectively. A sale agreement was entered into on March 28, where NHIF would pay Sh93.7 million for the land, which would be transferred to the fund on December 20.

Days after the sale agreement was signed, the then chief executive, Ibrahim Hussein, was reported to have commissioned architects, engineers and consultants for the project. Seven firms were contracted to carry out various activities, including drawings, a decision that would prove to be an expensive blunder that later exposed NHIF to a loss of Sh4.7 billion even though the project would never take off.
The contractors would later be paid over Sh400 million for no work done before a court ruled that they had no claim since the contracts were illegal from the onset. As the Karen land saga simmered, another scam was developing relating to the building of the NHIF parking silo.
Directors have been told that there was a significant variation in design to justify the four-fold increase in costs from Sh909 million to Sh3.3 billion.
Among the variations indicated in the report is that an additional basement parking level was introduced leading to delays. This saw the completion date moved forward by five years from August 2003 to August 2008. The third project whose queries the directors are supposed to respond to is the award of an insurance tender for civil servants, police officers and prison warders.

A consortium of Britam Life Assurance and Pioneer Assurance was awarded the tender to the chagrin of another bidder, UAP Assurance, which claimed to have submitted a lower bid.

State-owned Kenya Pipeline Company (KPC) has started the hunt for a new chief executive to occupy what is considered one of the hottest business leadership positions in Kenya, which has seen seven previous occupants exit unceremoniously in just under two decades.
The hunt began after Joe Sang announced yesterday that he was quitting amid investigations into the disappearance of 21 million litres of fuel valued at about Sh2 billion.
Mr Sang, whose tumultuous first three-year term was to expire in April 2019, handed in a resignation letter during yesterday’s board meeting, which allowed the Directorate of Criminal Investigations (DCI) and forensic auditors to investigate the loss in the past two years.

Billions poured into projects to cut fuel cost but consumers yet to gain
The KPC management he supervises has maintained that the unaccounted for fuel either spilt or was stolen by vandals, a claim countered by oil marketers who are seeking their own forensic audit.
Ten leading oil marketers, in an October 26 letter, sought to be allowed to conduct their own investigations into the loss that has become the centre of a fight between them and the KPC management in recent months.
KPC chairman John Ngumi said the scandal-dogged oil distributor will immediately engage a consultant to kick-start a competitive recruitment process for a new CEO.
