Former NLC chair Swazuri, 10 others charged with corruptionEx-National Land Commission chairman Muhammad Swazuri. They were detained over their suspected involvement in the Sh109 million payout for land valued at Sh34 million. The Ethics and Anti-Corruption Commission (EACC) which detailed how the alleged loot was shared out in court papers said the case was one of many in a multi-billion-shilling compensation scam. This dubious transaction is what landed Swazuri, NLC commissioner Emma Njogu, Director for Valuation Salome Munubi, Director of Finance Francis Mugo, NLC Secretary Lillian Keverenge and Deputy Director of Valuation Joash Oindo in trouble.
