Homa Bay Governor accused of using family to loot county funds

Date:

Adoyo Owidi has leveled serious accusations against Homa Bay Governor Gladys Wanga, claiming that her administration is involved in misusing public funds for personal gain.

According to the claims, shortly after Wanga assumed office, a company named Exxel Fortune Enterprises Limited was set up.

Within a year, the firm reportedly secured contracts worth KSh 19.92 million from both the county government and the Homa Bay Teaching and Referral Hospital.

The payments to the company have raised suspicions of favoritism.

The firm’s listed representatives, Maxwel Nyasuna and Collins Okoth, are said to have withdrawn KSh 9.74 million and KSh 12.19 million in cash, leading to concerns about whether the county received genuine services.

Nyasuna is reportedly the governor’s brother, suggesting a clear conflict of interest.

Additional transfers were allegedly made through mobile money, including KSh 200,000 to Richard Ogindo and KSh 850,670 to Collins Okoth via separate M-Pesa numbers. Some of the recipients remain unnamed, but the reported pattern hints at deliberate attempts to move money within a close circle while avoiding transparency.

These developments have caused frustration among Homa Bay residents, who feel that public resources are being diverted to benefit insiders rather than improve essential services.

Critics argue that instead of focusing on healthcare, infrastructure, and job creation, the county leadership seems to prioritize enriching associates and family members.

Adoyo Owidi’s revelations suggest that Exxel Fortune Enterprises Limited was strategically positioned to benefit from county contracts. The alleged misuse of office for personal and familial gain paints a worrying picture of governance, undermining public trust and leaving citizens struggling while a few benefit.
