Tuesday, July 23, 2024 - In March this year, dismissed Transport Cabinet Secretary Kipchumba Murkomen revealed the Ministry’s plan to expand the Kerenga Airstrip in Kericho County.
Murkomen reportedly gave the tender to build a 2-kilometer runway to his brother-in-law, who squandered the money.
The project has stalled and grass has started growing on the runway.
According to photos shared on social media, the runway is in a pathetic condition and not fit for planes to use it at the moment.
Murkomen’s brother-in-law, Nelson Koech, who is the Member of Parliament for Belgut, stole the money allocated to him to rehabilitate the airstrip and is allegedly constructing palatial mansions in Kipkelion.
