Eldoret, Uasin Gishu - A senior military officer is reported to have lost KSh 1.5 million following a night out at a club in Eldoret.
The officer, returning home from Nairobi, visited a club where he met a woman in tight clothing, believed to be a pishori babe. They quickly became acquainted, and she later used his phone to make transactions, as reported by Nation.

"The officer was travelling home from Nairobi with a substantial amount of cash when he chose to stop and relax in Eldoret. During his stay, a woman in skin-tight clothing remained by his side, assisting him with drinks," reported a guard.
The pair left the club around 9pm. The officer later returned to request access to the club's CCTV footage after finding himself alone in the room they had rented. It was then discovered that over KSh 300,000 had been withdrawn from his mobile phone.
Further investigation revealed that the officer had not only lost money from his phone but also had funds withdrawn from his bank account via the same phone. The officer also reported additional losses from his ABSA bank account through an ATM.
According to a report filed at the Eldoret police station, the total loss is estimated at over KSh 1.5 million.
In an unusual twist, the officer has hesitated to allow a formal police investigation, citing concerns that it could negatively impact his family.
"I have lost over KSh 1.5 million to a woman I was having fun with. Despite this loss, I do not want to file a formal report because this incident could hurt my family. I hope to handle this matter privately as an officer. I will soon arrest the suspect," the officer told his colleague.
In other news, congregants of Rofam Campus-Royal Family International Church lamented after their preacher defrauded them of millions and then went missing.
According to the victims, the pastor lured them to invest in his firm with a promise of getting a 30% monthly return.
Despite their cries, the preacher responded and urged them to desist from speaking negatively about the organization that once fed them.
