NairobiOsiro and Kidero were charged with conspiracy to defraud the millions from the county. The prosecution got a major boost in their bid to nail former Nairobi Governor Evans Kidero () and his co-accused in a Sh237 million graft case. This was after the High Court allowed the Director of Public Prosecutions to admit as evidence, the bank details of one of Kidero’s co-accused, Stephen Osiro, who was the head of accounting at Nairobi County. According to the DPP, Osiro’s bank details were crucial to the case as they showed how money was moved from City Hall accounts to a private individual’s accounts during Kidero’s reign as governor. Osiro and Kidero were charged alongside Lilian Wanjiru, Jimmy Kiambaa, Gregory Mwakanongo, Luke Gatimu, John Njogu and Grace Githua with conspiracy to defraud the millions from the county.
