Did Kamau wa Kisumu get motorbike?

Different types of youths attended the empowerment event; some had requested motorbikes, some shooting equipment and others wanted to start up a car wash.

The TikToker was among those who wanted a motorbike.

"We were scouted by Karen Nyamu, so I checked in the system. My name was there and I got in. I also ate."

However, Kamau left State House without the motorbike despite having taken a photo with it.

When he was chased out, he reportedly questioned how he would access the bike.

"I was told that since I had taken a photo, I should go outside so they can give me a motorbike. I asked the policeman. 'Do you know where I live?' He said ‘Truecaller will show us.’"

He claimed to have received calls from a private number threatening him and reportedly asking him to retract his statement about not receiving the bike.

Are empowerment funds proceeds of corruption?

In a separate story, former deputy president Rigathi Gachagua questioned where the millions that Deputy President Kithure Kindiki is giving out through empowerment programmes are coming from.

Gachagua said he didn't believe Kindiki could afford to give out such significant amounts of money, considering his official pay.

The former DP claimed that Kindiki had donated over KSh 300 million over the past few months.
