Detectives in Juja on Friday raided an apartment they said was owned by Nancy Indoveria Kigunzu, popularly known as ‘Mathe wa Ngara.’
Barely a year after she was arrested by detectives who raided a yard that had been closed and later illegally reopened for drug trafficking business where over 100 kilograms of marijuana was seized in Ngara, Nairobi County, Kigunzu is back on police radar.
Police believe that the Georgina Apartment is owned by Kigunzu, and that she shifted base to Juja from Ngara, operating in two houses at the said building where a drugs trafficking business has been ongoing for some time now.
In the search that lasted more than 12 hours, six sacks of marijuana were intercepted, and four vehicles as well as a motorbike nabbed.
Police towed away the four vehicles parked at the parking area of the apartment to Juja Police Station where they are being held.
Two suspects, David Ochieng Okoth and Christopher Odipo, who were arrested, will also spend the weekend in police custody after they were arrested in the raid.
Police however did not arrest Kigunzu and are searching for her, this not being the first time she has had a brush with the law.
She was arrested in August 2023 and a 100kg haul of bhang impounded from her operations base at the time in parklands.
Police also seized Ksh.13.4 million during the same raid, which was later forfeited to the State on the orders of the court.
Kigunzu was then released on Ksh.1 million cash bail in December 2023.
