Raila and the maize scandal

So I came across this memo to Raila today that was supposedly leaked by one of Anyang Nyong’os disgruntled juniors. The memo links Raila’s son Fidel to the missing maize. The reference to Denis is to the ODM PR guy Denis Onyango. Can’t vouch for the memo’s veracity though…it doesn’t seem like Anyang’s memo to put such incriminating stuff on paper and the typos are rather amateurish. Even if it’s fake the whispers I’ve been hearing say that it’s not far from the truth.

And then there was this “coincidental” firing of an unnamed Raila aide today for links to the maize scandal.

Anyone have any more enlightening info.?
EDIT: This blogger has more names.

  • That memo has been circulating for a while now. The first thing i did when i saw it was to doubt its authenticity, Anyang would not make such glaring grammatical mistakes. Anyhow, what is not happening. Too much rumours

    The mail is fake. Look at the spelling of Nyong’o name. That aint important. What is important is turn of event. Raila threat to raid the media, his claim of being “white as snow” then firing of his aid due to maize scandal does not add up at all. He has dipped his fingers in th jar of honey and the honey is sweet.

  • Blogger, “Freedom and Choice” has published what looks like an email with names, amounts, etc: http://njamba.wordpress.com/2009/01/29/name-behind-maize-scandal/

    “The problem with stealing is that once you taste that easy money, you are never, ever, going to want to work and you have to continue stealing in order to maintain your lifestyle”.

    More than 50 percent of all crimes are committed by re-offenders, and 40 percent to 60 percent of parolees return to prison. 70% of the offenders become repeat offenders.

    Fidel’s record can be found at the case search section on the left of this Maryland judicial site(link below).It seems the man has a record of sticky hands and drug usage. what is shocking is even with all the money the odinga’s already have fidel couldnt keep his sticky hands to himself even in the states .
