But after landing the NYS tender, their lives transformed dramatically.
"Some of them started living large, driving big cars and moved to the leafy Lake View Estate in outskirts of Naivasha town. For the last two years, it has been a complete metamorphosis for the family members," the Nation quoted Ngirita’s friend.
According to the friend, Ngirita’s family purchased prime plots in Naivasha worth millions of shillings.
