Yesterday, former assistant minister Omingo Magara came out to deny allegations that he owns the bizarre skeletons, masks and other halloween costumes impounded by KRA in Mombasa.
Magara however acknowledged owning some items that were in the same container with the costumes.
He has given KRA and commissioner Memo 7 days to apologise, failure to which he’ll move to court.
Meanwhile, Market Masters Ltd, the owners of Village Market, confirmed ownership of the items. In a press statement, the company revealed that they are to be used to decorate the Village Market during Halloween later this month.
Part of the statement read,
This puts to rest speculation as to who owns the items many are associating with satanism or witchcraft.
The rogue blog, Daily Post, had alleged that Moses Wetangula (who may soon be contesting in a by-election), is the owner.
