A controversial property deal between Nairobi Governor Mike Sonko and the Kenya Railways pension scheme is on the radar of anti-graft detectives. Sale agreements seen by the Star show that Sonko’s family is buying the property in the upmarket Upper Hill at Sh498.5 million. This was six months before Sonko was dramatically arrested by EACC detectives and charged in a Sh357 million graft case. For the first property, Sonko was to pay Sh298 million. But EACC has since established the property belongs to the pension scheme and fired a fresh letter to its managers.
