Tom Sigor, the founder of Image International Group, is currently under investigation by authorities over an alleged con scheme involving an alternative currency investment.

According to reports, Sigor is accused of conning a total of 12,000 victims out of Ksh4.7 billion. Two of his directors, Runiga Rigathu and Amos Ndombi, have confirmed the allegations, stating that they resigned from the company due to Sigor's lack of involvement in its operations.

“I resigned when I realised he was running the company without our involvement,” Rigathu is quoted to have said.

Sigor has denied the allegations, claiming that he did not coerce any investors into entrusting him with their money. He also stated that he saw nothing wrong in raising funds from the public for his technology company, which aimed to create a platform for Christians globally.

However, fresh details from the ground suggest that investors are planning to take action against Sigor, with some even mobilizing to visit a traditional doctor, Dr. Mugwenu, in an attempt to recover their lost funds.

Dr. Mugwenu, a renowned traditional healer from Tanzania, has a reputation for helping his clients recover their lost funds and punishing thieves.
