A CASE OF misuse of limited state resources? Well, two notorious officers attached to senior political figures are attracting attention for all the wrong reasons. Corridors of Power is reliably informed the two have assigned themselves at least four bodyguards who are always with them even as they go shopping or shaving, causing unnecessary inconvenience to members of the public. What could be of interest to the government’s investigative agencies is that these officers, who left their former work stations with nothing, now own multimillion-shilling properties in an Asian country.

IS A FORMER Cabinet Secretary from a strategic region on his way back to a major party he deserted years ago? We are told the man is now nursing gubernatorial ambitions and the only viable path is if he is sponsored by the opposition party. Corridors understands the man has been trying to catch the attention of the party supremo, especially on social media, a move that has caused concern among handlers of the current governor.

A FORMER GOVERNOR from Western has reunited with his successor after months of a bitter fallout. The two clashed soon after the elections over what was said to be certain business interests. The ex-governor had supported a rival candidate as his successor but the new governor beat him. The two are now back together, with insiders indicating they are working on a political deal to win crucial county seats in the next polls. The former governor is reportedly seeking to unseat the senator, who has been critical of the current county administration. The leaders are also said to have revived their business ties.

*********************************************

STILL ON WESTERN politics, a senator who declared ambition for a higher position is at loggerheads with a key figure from his county. The figure, who has much say in the current administration, is said to have objected to his ambition, demanding he joins his party. But the lawmaker is seemingly bullish, as he has the confidence of the opposition party. He says even if he falls out with his party, the elections are still far and he will have enough time to restrategise.
