A leadership crisis has rocked Nawasuku Sacco, a public service vehicle (PSV) operator along Thika Road, as members accuse top officials of mismanagement, secrecy, and abuse of office.
At the centre of the dispute is Treasurer Patrick Kimani—reported to be an officer with the Office of the Auditor General—alongside Chairman Arnold Wanjala and official Gibson Maina.
Members claim that the sacco, which operates over 40 vehicles, has deteriorated under the current leadership, citing lack of accountability and exclusion from key decisions.
“We have experienced the worst style of leadership ever. Our top leadership has turned this sacco into their personal business, mismanaging our funds as they wish,” said Dominic Emoit, a sacco member.
According to Emoit, the sacco has not held an Annual General Meeting (AGM) since 2017, with no explanation given to members. He also alleged that new members are being barred from joining.
“It is surprising that they even refuse to allow new members. They operate this sacco like their private business,” he added.
Members have also raised concerns over an alleged attempt to change the sacco’s name to Northland Movers without their knowledge or approval.
Questions have further emerged over the purchase of a vehicle whose proceeds remain unclear.
Kimani has also been accused by members of siphoning sacco funds for personal gain—claims he has not substantively addressed.
When contacted, he declined to comment, saying the matter is under legal consideration.
The standoff continues to deepen, with members now demanding transparency, accountability, and urgent reforms in the sacco’s leadership.
