By JOHN NJAGIMore by this AuthorMPs are baffled at how a key suspect in the National Youth Service scandal received more than Sh346 million and continued to work as driver. Mr John Kago continued to work at Kenya Commercial Bank, earning Sh15,000 a month, even after acquiring his newly found wealth, almost half of the Sh971 million looted at NYS. “I am a driver at KCB, but I am on suspension and half salary due to the NYS scandal in which my name has been mentioned," Mr Kago told the National Assembly’s Public Accounts Committee on Thursday. According to a special audit by the Auditor-General, Mr Kago received Sh346 million from key suspects Josephine Kabura and Ben Gethi. Mr Kago said he had known Ms Kabura, whose three firms received Sh791 million to build a 3.5km road in Kibera, Nairobi, for one-and-a half-years.
