Detectives in Githunguri, Kiambu are searching for a man accused of swindling a woman out of Sh130,000 in a reported bar business partnership gone wrong.
Faith Wanjiru Munene told police she gave the money to Samuel Muchangi Nyaga for the business.
She claimed Nyaga introduced her to a bar business opportunity in Kayole, Nairobi, proposing that they both contribute capital to kickstart the venture.
She said she initially sent Sh30,000 on May 13, 2025, to Nyaga’s friend, identified as Kennedy Wangu.
Days later, the man turned against her.
Following this transaction, she alleges that Nyaga’s behavior became erratic, culminating in him blocking her communication.
The mother of two is now appealing to the police to thoroughly investigate the matter and ensure the suspect is brought to justice.
“We had agreed to be partners in the business,” Munene stated.
“His stock amounted to Sh123,000, and we agreed I would contribute Sh123,000 to match it. I gave him Sh90,000 in cash, and he instructed me to send an additional Sh33,000 to his manager.”
Nyaga has denied the claims. Police said they are investigating the matter and efforts to trace the accused person are ongoing.
