Catherine Namuye is the immediate former CEO of the Youth Fund, where she served together with Bruce Odhiambo, who is a former classmate to President Uhuru Kenyatta.
Although details regarding the death are scanty, the late Namuye might have been poisoned as police officers who retrieved her body found her mouth foaming.
Namuye, who is the daughter of Professor Namuye of USIU, shot into the limelight for the misappropriation of funds, after Bruce Odhiambo made her the sole signatory of the Youth Fund account. Suspicious transactions then emerged, with the biggest beneficiary being Quorandum Limited. Waithera Nganga and Mukuria Ngamau are listed as directors of that fictitious firm.

When Uhuru assumed presidency, there was a wave of new faces at specific ministries, who made away with a lot of money under the cover of beautiful hashtags and a bombardment of PR antics.
Disturbing news reaching us is that the family is covering up the death. It remains unclear why they're doing so.
Suspects in the death are Anne Waiguru, who is probably trying to cover up her crimes by eliminating witnesses. It's a familiar tactic that was used to frustrate the ICC cases. Another suspect is Bruce Odhiambo.
Her last post on social media seems like a Facebook photo, uploaded on October 1st ( Sunday ) at 17:58 . Her body was retrieved by police today morning. CAPTION: This is the last Facebook post that Catherine Namuye uploaded on 1st October ( Sunday ). From obscurity, Namuye rose to the Senior position of CEO, whereby she interacted with the high and mighty. But after using her, the political class disposed her off and made her the scapegoat. And that's life for you. First they use you, then they abuse you.
Those who are currently eating with Jubilee, or using their positions to serve the political-class instead of The People, should know that this too will happen to them. Your short lived exploits in embezzlement will end up like this.
Do good, help many and don't imagine that the positions you occupy are created by your mothers. Even Matiang'i who was talking crap about Raila's constitutionally-guaranteed security, will one day leave that position.
Even Uhuru with all his corruption and arrogance of only spreading our national Cake to his friends, cronies and sycophants will one day come face-to-face with karma. And as they say, Karma is a bitch! CAPTION: Catherine Namuye and former Nakuru Governor Kinuthia Mbugua.
