Murkomen speaks of his Sh900k watch, Sh20,000 tie

Transport CS Kipchumba Murkomen [Facebook]

Kenyans were stunned on Monday when Transport CS Kipchumba Murkomen revealed some of the most expensive items he owns. He mentioned a watch worth Sh900,000, a belt costing between Sh40,000 to Sh50,000, shoes worth Sh70,000 to Sh80,000, and a tie costing Sh20,000.

Murkomen tried to downplay his wealth, saying he only needed one belt every two years and that it could be worn on either side to give the impression of owning two belts. He also advised the host, Obinna, to buy one belt worth Sh 50,000 that can be worn on both sides.
