A number of MPs have been accused of receiving free apartments as bribes in order to close a distillery in the latest crackdown.
In a letter addressed to Parliament Speaker Justin Muturi, the management of the troubled London Distillers Kenya (LDK) company claimed that some of the MPs had received significant subsidies on housing units for the same purpose.
The offer was reportedly extended to members of the Committee on Implementation of House Resolutions who had been probing the matter since it was reported in 2018.

Covid-19 has put undue pressure on public schools to accommodate more students after some private institutions closed down.
The schools closed down due to tough economic times occasioned by the pandemic.
During a visit by eight Cabinet secretaries to Oloolua Primary School in Kajiado North, area MP Joseph Manje said many private schools in the region had closed down due to Covid-19, and there was pressure on public schools to admit more learners.
