Kenyan Man Who Spent N1.7M On His Son's Birthday Begs For Financial Assistance

A Kenyan man identified as Douglas Otieno Owila, made headlines in September 2016 when he spent a huge amount of money to celebrate his son’s birthday. Sadly, he is now in deep financial distress and is asking for donations, Igbere Tv reports. Igbere Tv had learnt that Mr. Owila spent KSh 500,000 ( over N1.7 million ) on his son’s birthday almost three years ago and the celebration featured on local blogs. The extravagant birthday bash went on for three days and had the young boy entertained by traditional dancers while surrounded by heavy security men. But, on March 19, 2019, Owila was arrested and detained at Kodiago GK Prisons where he spent the night on Tuesday after he failed to raise KSh 100,000 (over N355K) bond to secure the release of a friend. The politician had given his motorbike logbook as surety which he later sold, prompting a Kisumu court to order his immediate arrest. His situation became worse when the accused person failed to show up for court sessions throughout the period in which the case went on. By close of business on Wednesday, March 20, his family and friends had only raised KSh 70,000. The plea for financial assistance continues on Facebook to secure his release.

The Governor of Imo State, Chief Rochas Okorocha, has challenged the Governor-elect of the state, Hon. Emeka Ihedioha, to probe him when he leaves office. The Governor said this while debunking recent allegation by Ihedioha and the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, in the state that he has already withdrawn N17 billion from the state treasury. According to the outgoing governor, Ihedioha has every right to investigate even the food he and his family ate in Government House from 2011 to 2019. He described the allegation as unfounded, adding that Ihedioha lacks the capacity to lead Imo State. DAILY POST reported earlier that Ihedioha had given directives to financial institutions in the state against further transactions with the Okorocha-led government.
