Directorate of Criminal Investigations (DCI) detectives are in hot pursuit of a fugitive accused of defrauding Kenyans of millions of shillings.

    This is a result of letting Nigerians immigrate to Kenya uncontrolled. What do you think they bring to Kenya-oil or cassava? None. Conmanship that is what they are bringing to Kenya. In fact Kenya has become a playground for Nigerian conmen. They easily recruit desperate Kenyans to work in cohort with them and what you are seeing is a result of it. They recently got empowered when one of them got married to second in command's daughter. Kenyans, embrace for more scams. It is what you asked for
