A former director for Lands, Urban Planning, Urban Renewal and Housing during the tenure of Evans Kidero as governor of Nairobi, Engineer Judah Ochieng Abekar is a man on the spot following revelations that he was involved in the looting of county funds.

The Engineer is said to have diverted county funds to his personal gain by using the said funds to construct a 50 million shillings Le-Grand Oyugis Hotel in his native Oyugis backyard, Homabay county.

The man, according to sources hails from Osije village of Kasipul sub-county in Homabay. County funds were diverted through kickbacks he received for constructions of several markets and liquor licencing fees diverted through a parallel bank account at the Co-operative Bank of Kenya.

Le-Grand Oyugis Hotel 

Eng.  Abaker was appointed to the position by disgraced former Governor Evans Kidero. He has never been brought to justice for the ills committed against the people of Nairobi, unlike his colleagues now facing charges in various courts of law.

The streetwise and ever calculating Engineer has avoided detection from investigative agencies who have so far failed in unearthing details of a vast portfolio of properties strewn across the country that he owns.

 But sources close to the engineer discloses that of late, following a series of recoveries from proceeds of crime by the Asset Recovery Agency across the country, the man is increasingly worried that investigators are soon closing in on him.

Sources also hinted that the engineer was behind several schemes that saw taxpayers lose billions of shillings through shadowy firms at the Kenya Pipeline Corporation.

The shadowy firms include Sealings and Seals Limited, Thermo Dynamics general supplies Limited, Boiler petroleum supplies limited as well as Nairobi General Supplies Limited.

Other properties owned by the Eng. which could be repossessed by the State include a palatial mansion along Thika road as well as Several residential plots in Kitengela.
