A special committee formed by the County Assembly of Kericho to investigate how Sh14.5 million for victims of the Londiani junction road accident was utilized, has revealed glaring discrepancies in the payments made by the donation committee.

Assembly Majority Leader Philip Rono revealed that bills submitted to the probe team showed significant disparities in what was paid to two suppliers- Daniel Mwangi Gitata and Mary Njeri Ngenga on July 17 and August 3, 2023.
