A Director General of the National Industrial Training Authority (Nita), Stephen Ogenga, has been charged with corruptly conferring a benefit of Sh4.8 million for the supply and maintenance of sewing machines. James Waweru and Sheila Wambui Nyakinyua, both directors of Xponics Limited, were separately charged with corruptly obtaining Sh10.1 million from Nita by falsifying a tender for the supply and maintenance of sewing machines. Waweru and Wambui have denied corruptly obtaining Sh10,189,064 from Nita by submitting a falsified bid to secure an unfair advantage in the tender. The three were charged with defrauding Nita by submitting a false tender for the supply and maintenance of sewing machines. The prosecution did not oppose their release on bail but urged the court to consider that the amount involved was public money.
