Fraud -Kate Murugi is a Kenyan lady who in 2009 went to the Gulf countries seeking for greener pastures and after her five year stint in Saudi Arabia, she returned home only to find her sister misused her sh 1 million.
She first started with salary of sh 30,000 as a house help before her contract expired forcing her to look for something else to do. She continued living in Saudi Arabia working and sending her earnings back home for development. Her sister used to receive the money through Western Union.
According to the interview she issued on Radio jambo, at her first place of work she used to sleep at 2AM and wake up as early as 5AM. That was the agreement.
After six months she had managed to raise a whopping sh 500,000 and sent it home for land and another half a million later to start a cake making business.
Unfortunately on returning home, her sister had no money and told her that she had invested all the cash in companies that had since collapsed.
“My sitter told me she took the cash to some investment entities which had sunk with all the cash. I was disturbed and almost committed suicide,” Kate recounted.
The sister also at some point claimed she had loaned some cash to friends who had not repaid. Few months later, Kate realised the sister had bought a parcel of land but put it under her own name with Kate’s name coming in as mere next of kin.
