Five Tunai files closed, but probe to continue

Director of Public Prosecutions (DPP) Keriako Tobiko

The Director of Public Prosecutions, Keriako Tobiko has cleared Agriculture CS Felix Koskei and Transport CS Michael Kamau but has opted to prosecute Makueni Governor Kivutha Kibwana and his executive committee. Upon further reviewing, the DPP has ordered for more investigations to be conducted against Narok Governor Samuel Tunai and two county officials.

 Felix Koskei has been cleared of the charges brought against him of allocating permits to import sugar to 10 companies. DPP Tobiko closed the file for several reasons, among them the fact that importation of sugar was done by the interim head of the Sugar Directorate and an appointed Regulation and Compliance Sub-committee of the Sugar Directorate. This clears the CS of any involvement in process.
