Infotrak was on Monday fighting off extortion claims as MP cry foul over poll ranking. MPs on Monday accused Infotrak of using the rankings to make a kill from them, but Infotrak CEO Angela Ambitho dismissed the claims as untrue. The lawmaker told the Star that there were attempts by people purporting to work for Infotrak to negotiate the positioning. Responding to Ochanda’s claims, Ambitho confirmed that officers reached out to MPs but denied that the mission was to have the results manipulated at a fee. Ochanda also said some MPs had the results as early as July, two months to the official release of the findings.
