Nancy, previously unidentified, had been deeply involved in the illicit trade of marijuana within the slums.

A substantial haul, valued at over 13 million Kenyan shillings, was seized during the operation, which included a substantial amount of cash. As details emerge about her activities, it becomes apparent that Nancy possesses significant influence, even extending to orchestrating the transfers of police officers within specific regions, including Parklands, Central, Ngara, and Kamukunji police stations.

Nancy’s ability to manipulate officer transfers in these designated areas indicates her formidable power. She is reputed to have the capacity to relocate cooperative and friendly officers to stations of her choice. The motivation behind her actions is rooted in the forbidden nature of the marijuana trade in Kenya.

Aware of the risks associated with her illegal enterprise, Nancy recognizes the necessity of maintaining police protection in the regions where she conducts her business. To ensure her operations remain undisturbed, she strategically places officers sympathetic to her cause who allow her to continue her trade discreetly.

Her operational headquarters lies within the Karuia slums of Ngara, where she has fostered an environment conducive to her endeavors. By providing incentives to unemployed youth, she secures both security and informants who alert her to any potential police presence. This careful approach enables her to operate within a relatively safe haven.

Reports from local residents reveal that Nancy, who goes by the alias Mathee Wa Ngara, is a shadowy figure enjoying significant safeguarding from high-ranking police officials.

The scope of Nancy’s influence is further underscored by her ability to determine officer transfers in specific police stations. Allegedly, a low-ranking officer resorted to tipping off the Directorate of Criminal Investigations (DCI) about Nancy’s drug den due to a dispute with colleagues over protection money offered by the drug trade.

This instance sheds light on Nancy’s pervasive dominance, and even those within law enforcement circles are not immune to her sway.

Although Nancy’s exact personal life remains enigmatic, some details have emerged. She maintains two residences: one nestled within the slums to blend with the local community, and another fortified dwelling concealed from public knowledge. Nancy’s sphere of authority extends to the point where those within her operation dare not abscond with her ill-gotten gains, as reprisals are swift and merciless.

The prevalent sentiment among residents underscores her potent influence: “No one dares to run away with the money. They will be killed. She is that powerful.”

As investigations continue, the narrative of Nancy Kizungu, alias Mathee Wa Ngara, the suspected drug baron of Kariwa slums, unfolds, revealing a complex web of power dynamics and secrecy.
