State officer in trouble for giving house to girlfriend's mum
A senior state official almost broke up with his wife after she discovered his high level of generosity outside their matrimonial home. He ran into trouble after his wife of decades learnt he has built a multi-million shilling house for the parents of his new girlfriend. Those in the know say the state officer had kept his move under wraps until recently when it came to light. Some political activists were overheard calling the girlfriend, who is eyeing a political seat, a home wrecker.

Still on love affairs, the affection between a former bigwig and the partner of a departed politician has increasingly been on display. The two have been spotted together on several occasions. Their affair is slowly becoming a factor in the man’s political bid amid jitters the woman may hurt his quest. Corridors of Power is informed the relationship may have as well started long before the death of the woman's spouse. It is said the two struck up a liaison after the bigwig invited the former county boss to his home.

Employees of a state-owned organisation are stressed. Reason? They have not been paid salaries since their boss, who authorises their pay, went on vacation to a coastal city with his new catch. He had already paid himself. To demonstrate his despotic nature, Corridors is informed that man, who is barely a year in office, was overheard saying he cannot be pressured to pay his dues. He has been boasting that he enjoys the protection of ‘the system’, hence, he is untouchable.

Did a political bigwig become a laughing stock among his colleagues in one of the political formations? They believe he may have rushed to complain he was being mistreated in their coalition yet he has no foot soldiers. Things seem not to be working for the politician after it emerged none of the aspirants he was endorsing is strong enough to win the seats he or she is eyeing, leaving him in an awkward position. The man’s handlers have reminded him to tread carefully in his demands, lest they lose the little that is left for them in the coalition. BY THE STAR
