Saturday, November 22, 2025 - Three Kenya Airways employees have been sentenced to 25 years in prison each after being found guilty of trafficking heroin valued at more than Ksh 60 million. According to a statement released on Saturday, November 22nd , by the Office of the Director of Public Prosecutions (ODPP), the Jomo Kenyatta International Airport (JKIA) Court handed down the sentences to Lennox Chengek Chestit, a cabin crew member; Kenneth Sinzore Isundu, a ground staffer; and Alfric Odhiambo Otieno, also a cabin crew member. Alongside the lengthy jail terms, each convict was slapped with hefty fines ranging between Ksh 88 million and Ksh 90 million. Failure to pay will add an extra year behind bars, to run concurrently with their main sentences. The convictions stemmed from two separate counts of trafficking narcotics. In the first count, Chestit and Isundu were found guilty of trafficking 9,845.70 grams of heroin worth Ksh29.5 million. In the second one, Otieno and Isundu were convicted of trafficking 20 kilograms of heroin valued at Ksh60 million. Senior Principal Magistrate Njeri Thuku dismissed their appeals for non-custodial sentences, stressing that drug trafficking offences fall outside the scope of the Community Service Orders Act. “To see employees of Kenya Airways themselves involved in drug trafficking is more damaging than any of them possibly imagined,” she noted, highlighting the reputational harm to national institutions. DPP Renson Ingonga welcomed the judgment, calling it a strong signal of Kenya’s resolve to dismantle drug networks. “This verdict sends a clear message that no individual or institution is beyond the reach of the law,” he affirmed.

Saturday, November 22, 2025 - Kilimani detectives have arrested a smooth-talking con artist who pocketed Sh 2.5 million in a daring police recruitment scam that preyed on desperate job seekers. Benedict Odeng’ero Wekesa was taken into custody after three victims came forward, each narrating how they were lured with promises of “guaranteed” entry into the police service. Armed with forged recruitment letters, Wekesa convinced the victims to part with hefty sums of money, assuring them that their slots were secured in the service. By the time reality finally kicked in, a total of Sh 2.5 million had changed hands, and the dreams of joining the service had vanished. Responding swiftly, detectives ambushed the suspect, arresting him at the Sagret Hotel in Kilimani. When detectives stormed the premises, they recovered twenty more fake police recruitment letters, exposing what looks like a well-oiled fraud operation. His accomplice, however, escaped the moment he sniffed danger, slipping through before officers could pin him down. Wekesa is currently in custody, undergoing processing pending arraignment as detectives follow fresh leads to apprehend his accomplice, who managed to escape. The DCI urges members of the public to beware of fake police recruiters and reminds them that genuine enlistment into the National Police Service is free, fair, and transparent.

Saturday, November 22, 2025 - Central Organisation of Trade Unions (COTU) Secretary-General, Francis Atwoli, has denied reports suggesting that he endorsed Trans Nzoia Governor George Natembeya as the political leader of Western Kenya. A poster circulating online claimed Atwoli had thrown his weight behind Natembeya, portraying him as the Luhya community’s seniormost leader. The post implied that Atwoli was impressed by Natembeya’s rise, a move seen as undermining Prime Cabinet Secretary Musalia Mudavadi and National Assembly Speaker Moses Wetang’ula. Atwoli swiftly dismissed the poster as fake, reiterating his long-standing support for Mudavadi and Wetang’ula. The outspoken union boss has consistently rallied the Luhya community behind the two leaders, insisting that they are best positioned to chart a viable political course. He has even urged one of them to contest the presidency in the 2032 General Election. Natembeya, however, has positioned himself as a rival voice in Western Kenya politics. Through his “Tawe Movement,” the Governor has accused Mudavadi and Wetang’ula of leveraging the region’s numerical strength for personal bargaining power in successive regimes, without delivering tangible benefits to ordinary citizens. He has vowed to dislodge them from community leadership. Natembeya joined elective politics in 2022, winning the Trans Nzoia governorship after a career in the Ministry of Interior, where he last served as Rift Valley regional coordinator.

Saturday, November 22, 2025 - Former Nairobi Governor Mike Mbuvi Sonko has shared a touching photo spending quality time with his daughter Salma, days after dramatically rescuing her from an abusive marriage. In the photo, Salma appears relaxed and cheerful as she bonds with her father, mother, and siblings, a stark contrast to the turmoil she has allegedly been enduring. Sonko accompanied the photo with a powerful message urging parents to speak openly with their children about toxic relationships. “Parents, teach your sons and daughters that coming home after a failed relationship is better than coming home in a coffin,” he wrote. The flamboyant politician caused a buzz earlier in the week after he stormed his son-in-law’s house in Kitengela, confronting him for reportedly assaulting his daughter. The confrontation sparked widespread debate online, with many applauding Sonko for defending his child and speaking boldly against domestic abuse. The Kenyan DAILY POST
