A senior police officer has revealed explosive details of a sting operation involving former Nairobi governor Mike Sonko and JamboPay (Webtribe Ltd) boss Danson Muchemi, alleging an attempted multimillion-shilling bribe to influence a county tender.

Testifying at the Anti-Corruption Court yesterday, Chief Inspector Kiptoo Kisorio claimed Mr Muchemi offered Mr Sonko up to Sh5 million daily in January 2019 to retain JamboPay’s lucrative revenue collection contract with Nairobi County.
