A SENIOR GOVERNMENT official, our moles indicate, is supposedly the invisible hand behind the collapse of a recent multibillion-shilling investment. Insiders claim the powerful technocrat allegedly threw spanners into the deal at the last minute, frustrating investors just as the project was about to take off.

A LAWMAKER IS seemingly nursing a bruised ego after being conspicuously sidelined during a recent high-profile visit by a seasoned politico to his area.
