THE DIRECTOR OF communications at a county in the Western region is in trouble.  The man collected Sh200,000 meant for a meeting with area journalists, which never was. The meeting had been organised to encourage "bonding with the governor". However, his antics have been uncovered by the chief officer, the office of the governor. The chief officer is said to have vowed to teach the official a lesson for the theft. He has been ordered to refund the cash or have the same deducted from his salary. He is also blaming the official for the governor’s poor relationship with the media. A bird whispered to Corridor that the now furious governor has said he will not sit back watching his resources going to waste and his political star dwindle.
