Millicent Omanga’s hustles under heavy scrutiny following Bentley acquisition

Millicent’s viral clip shows her driving a new Bentley into one of the roadside premises in the city.

Her cameras show the vehicle’s plush interior with a posh infotainment system.

The spacious Sport Utility Vehicle (SUV) left Kenyans in awe, as many can only dream of owning such luxurious machines.

Some X users were quick to point out that Ms. Omanga excels in business besides her visibility in politics.

According to user @zero_mind8, the two-time Nairobi woman representative election loser reportedly runs successful dairy, furniture, and beverage businesses.

“It’s not everyone who is in politics and has money is corrupt. Millicent Omanga owns a dairy farm, she distributes alcohol among many other businesses that are under her name. She is a hard worker besides politics and I bet that’s how she can even afford a Bentley,” wrote the tweep in support of Omanga.

However, some Kenyans remain skeptical of Hon. Omanga’s display of wealth, speculating that it may be linked to misappropriated public funds.

Millicent Omanga among wealthy Kenya Kwanza politicians

Millicent is widely regarded as influential within the government, even though she currently operates outside it.

The seasoned female city politician also enjoys close political ties to the president.

She has in the past been caught up in problematic government tenders that threatened her political career.

Ms. Omanga, however, survived any liabilities while serving as a nominated senator in Kenya’s parliament.

Skepticism of her success is understandably informed by the recurring corruption scandals coordinated by politicians.

X user @Kenyasays wrote: “Millicent Omanga the biggest business lady in Kenya with known Factories, Industries, and Companies has acquired a new Bentley worth over Ksh. 32 million!” in reaction to Omanga’s new ride.

Her public display of wealth is part of a growing trend among government-aligned leaders who openly flaunt their riches, despite the economic struggles faced by the majority of Kenyans.

Sports Cabinet Secretary Kipchumba Murkomen and Thika Town MP Alice Ng’ang’a are among the politicians who have recently faced a backlash for showing off.

While Kipchumba Murkomen rocked costly watches, sneakers, and ties, Alice Ng’ang’a pulled killer dance moves inside a gated compound with high-end cars in the background.

Among her collection of sleek and expensive vehicles is the coveted Lexus 570 SUV, valued at over 10 million Kenyan shillings.
