While the DP Dr Ruto belatedly admits that the former Sports Secretary Mr Rashid Echesa and his would be Polish financial prey victims, met for "only 23 minutes" at his official Harambee House Annex office, Dr Ruto pointed the Polish military equipment supplier hopefuls could have, for "months", met with other senior government officials especially at the Department of Defense (DoD).

What does Deputy
President William Samoei Ruto actually know regarding the arms import scandal
from Poland? This is the most embarrassing scandal that has demeaned his office
and literally converted it into a crime scene to behold.
This comes even as
calls for his resignation are made by sections of political elite.
Incidentally, some of those calling for his resignation are active suspects in
different forms of corruption.
While the DP Dr
Ruto belatedly admits that the former Sports Secretary Mr Rashid Echesa and his
would be Polish financial prey victims, met for "only 23 minutes" at
his official Harambee House Annex office, Dr Ruto pointed the Polish military
equipment supplier hopefuls could have, for "months", met with other
senior government officials especially at the Department of Defense (DoD).
Whether it was a
diversionary tactic or genuine pointer to unearthing the real architects behind
the scam at the second highest office - the damage appeared to have already
been done. In a highly emotional and non-strategic tweet on Sunday morning, Dr
Ruto seemed to open the pandora's box of what could turn to be a spiral web in
government circles.
Mr
Echesa is said to have used Dr Ruto's office to obtain Sh11 million as
facilitation fees from Eco Advanced Technologies Company under false pretense
he could help them seal the mouth-watering deal. He was charged on Monday
together with one Daniel Otieno, Clifford Okoth and Kennedy Oyoo, with 12
counts of attempting to defraud Polish team.
