Anne Ngirita: I’m starving in prison

Ms Anne Wambere Ngirita, one of the accused in the Sh8 billion NYS scandal, has complained of starvation in cell.

Ms Ngirita raised the issue when she attended a pre-trial conference on the their cases at the Milimani Law Courts on Wednesday.

Through lawyer Cliff Ombeta, she told the anti-corruption court in Nairobi that the last time she had a meal was Sunday.

And in an exclusive interview with the Nation, Ms Ngirita, who first appeared in court carrying a baby, said she has been surviving on the samosas a relative brought her.

“How can we follow these proceedings when we are hungry? We are starving,” she said.

Authorities at Lang’ata Prison in Nairobi, she said, do not want them to raise the issue in court.
