Nalitex
Ltd, incorporated on May 3, 2024, with Selpha Chesimi Temoi as sole director,
won the multibillion-shilling tender for the uniforms despite its untraceable
office and phone number linked to accountant Charles Tela Alusala, who handles
finances for First Lady Rachel Ruto and President Ruto’s daughter Charlene.
Reports from Daily Nation and The Standard highlight missing tender details even from police leaders and shared addresses with Ruto family-linked businesses.
Critics question the award to such a young firm amid a pattern of associate-linked deals, while the government emphasizes police modernization and a 36 percent salary boost for constables.
