The Standard e-Paper
Kenya’s Boldest Voice
The Standard Group Plc is a
multi-media organization with investments in media platforms spanning newspaper
print operations, television, radio broadcasting, digital and online services. The
Standard Group is recognized as a leading multi-media house in Kenya with a key
influence in matters of national and international interest.
About three years ago, at the height of the Covid-19 pandemic, the son of a wealthy and prominent Kenyan got caught in a drug abuse scandal.
It is said the man beat his son so badly that the young man ended up in ICU in a South African hospital. The son was later transferred to a hospital in Nairobi.
The family went to great lengths to keep the matter secret. Such are the struggles of some wealthy families when the children take to drugs instead of taking up respectful careers or ventures.
But it is not all gloom and doom as some of the scions of these wealthy families are doing admirable work.
