THE KAKAMEGA BULLY

By Joel Eshikumo Fernandes Barasa who came on the political scene, marketed as monied and a shrewd manager determined to change the destiny of Kakamega for good, appears to be struggling today.  Despite bagging the coveted Azimio ticket thru direct picking, Barasa is playing catch up to other candidates in the race to replace Outgoing Governor Oparanya.  Insiders have pointed at several things that would be pulling the Azimio candidate back as his competitors including DAP-k 's Ayub Savula and Kenya Kwanza's duo of Honorable Cleophas Malala and Bonny Khalwale who are running riot across the county.  DYNAMIC DUO: The union Between Honorables Malala and Khalwale is proving real danger to Barasa towards August. In what appears to be a well coordinated plot to fail his candidature, self righteous-appointed handlers are very strategic on how the candidate handles his matters.  Observers have said Fernandes Barasa is spending most of his time in board room meetings wi...

Kenya Revenue Authority (KRA) seeks to obtain Ksh473 million from a publication belonging to Lugari MP Ayub Savula over claims of unpaid taxes accruing from a period of four years. Reports show that Savula's publication, Sunday Publishers, had secured contracts between 2013 and 2017- the stipulated period in question. Savula had gone to court to prevent the tax authority from seizing his assets, as ordered by the Tax Appeal Tribunal. He confirmed to the court that he had paid Ksh3 million and was willing to pay another Ksh3 million to the tax authority. The legislator, in his defense, had argued that due to the publication facing numerous legal suits, it was forced to shut down. He argued that due to this, the company didn't have any liquidity in order to pay the security in one installment. However, after reviewing the case, High Court Justice David Majanja ruled that Savula had to get a bank guarantee of Ksh10 million within the next 45 days in order to prevent KR...

  There are three things that cannot be hidden for long: The sun, the moon, and the truth. Last week, the truth behind the close tie between Mumias Sugar Company Receiver Manager PRV Rao and Devki Group was made public.  Apparently, Rao and Devki of Narendra Raval started transacting businesses long time ago.

Rao and Devki are believed to have struck a deal that would have seen the latter take over Mumias Sugar Company. However, the deal between Rao and Devki hit a snag due to public outcry that led Devki to withdraw his bid to avoid being subjected to public scrutiny on how he had won the bid. Farmers, political leaders and players in the sugar industry were shocked how Devki may hav...
