A police officer was on Tuesday evening arrested after shooting his wife dead at their house in the Railways Police Lines in Eldoret.
A report filed by Constable Maxwell Maina’s neighbour indicates that as she was heading home, she heard gunshot sounds from the officer’s house and alerted police.
“Railways and DCI Soy personnel rushed to the scene and found one Mercy Chebet having been shot twice in the chest and succumbed to injury,” police said.
Maina had been issued with the firearm at 8 PM for train escort and upon his arrest, it was found that he had expended three rounds of ammunition.
The report further noted that there have been persistent domestic feuds between Maina and Chebet.
The deceased’s body was moved to the Moi Teaching and Referral Hospital mortuary pending post-mortem.
“January-February, KCB customers should be able to be served in an NBK branch and NBK customers in a KCB branch. That gives you an opportunity to optimize because you can then remove overlaps,” Russo said.
“One would ask, why are you running two branches in Wajir, but you need a technology capability. That is the direction you want to take.”
KCB Group in April 2019 made the offer to acquire 100 per cent of NBK shareholding by way of a share swap of 10 ordinary shares of NBK for every 1 ordinary share of KCB.
The Central Bank of Kenya (CBK) approved the acquisition in September 2019, making the merger Kenya’s largest bank by assets and market share.
Beyond Kenya, KCB has regional units in Uganda, Tanzania, Rwanda, Burundi, Ethiopia and South Sudan.
It also owns non-banking subsidiaries such as KCB Bancassurance Intermediary, KCB Capital, and KCB Foundation.
