The beginning of Raphael Tuju’s story does not read like that of a gullible man who would simply gamble away his wealth — years of sweat and sacrifice, dissolved into nothingness by a single strike of the auctioneer’s hammer.
Nor does it feel like a chapter Mr Tuju would willingly write into the final pages of his life story. At least, that is not how the former Jubilee Party Secretary-General would like his story to end.
