Agnes Wacera Macharia was struggling to pay loans which she took to buy her matatu which burnt in Kayole during anti-IEBC demonstrations.
Njogu wa Njoroge yesterday mobilized listeners on Kameme FM to raise cash for Ms Agnes Macharia whose minibus was burnt during anti-IEBC demonstrations on June 6th in Kayole.
A quarter a million was raised in 20 minutes. By close of business Tuesday, a record Kes 2 million had been raised.
Njogu had highlighted Ms Macharia’s misery after her matatu got burnt. Listeners were moved by revelations that the woman was struggling to repay a loan she took to buy the matatu.
The Kameme FM presenter hopes to raise a total of Kes 5 million for Ms Macharia so that she could buy a brand new matatu complete with insurance cover.
Jubilee MPs are said to have contributed Kes 1 million to Njogu’s fundraising drive. Meanwhile Ms Macharia had moved to court seeking to have CORD leaders; Raila Odinga, Kalonzo Musyoka and Moses Wetangula, ordered to pay for the damages she incurred during anti-IEBC demos.
