ECONOMIC CRIMESThe scandal revolves around the construction of two Sh61 billion dams in Elgeyo-Marakwet County. President Kenyatta used a similar occasion on March 2015 to direct five Cabinet Secretaries to step aside after their ministries were caught in corruption scandals. There are also reports of a major Cabinet reshuffle before the President breaks for the Easter Holiday. WAR OF WORDSAmong those who have already been questioned over the dams scandal are National Treasury Cabinet Secretary Henry Rotich, Agriculture’s Mwangi Kiunjuri, and Devolution’s Eugene Wamalwa. Of late, Mr Kenyatta appears to be losing trust in his Cabinet secretaries and has been castigating them in public.
