A popular Senator over the weekend caused a ruckus at an airstrip after claiming that someone had stolen part of the money he was carrying.
Trouble is said to have started when the legislator who was in the company of his colleagues was alighting from the helicopter he had boarded to travel to the remote area.
As he was picking his luggage he was heard screaming that somebody had pinched part of the cash he had carried in a non-woven bag.
A body search the senator conducted on the pilot, who he had entrusted to keep the money, yielded nothing.
The politician later in the evening confided to his colleagues that he had lost Sh100,000 from the close to Sh1m he had carried.
