Money Heist: LIZ ONDEGO steals Ksh 10 million from a Chama and deactivates her social media accounts.
Friday, January 17, 2025 - A woman identified as Liz Mandey Ondego is on the run after she reportedly stole Ksh 10 million from a Chama, leaving the members in a state of desperation. The cunning woman convinced the gullible members to deposit their money in a Chama and promised them monthly returns of 30%. The money was supposed to be sent to them after 11 months. Little did they know that she was plotting to defraud them of their hard-earned money. Liz and another woman called Loice were the only signatories of the Chama account at Stanbic Bank. The two women had been withdrawing money from the account without the member’s consent. While Loice withdrew Ksh 3 Million and disbursed some of the money to the members after being busted, Liz vanished with Ksh 10 Million and deactivated her social media pages. Before her fraudulent activities were exposed, she had been flaunting a lavish lifestyle on social media. The members have since lodged a complaint with the police and taken to social media to air their grievances. Check this out.The Kenyan DAILY POST.

How Often Should You Revamp Your Wig?
Wigs are a fantastic way to express our style, protect natural hair, or simply switch things up. But just like natural hair, wigs need proper care to stay in top condition. One of the most common questions wig wearers ask is: How often should I revamp my wig? The answer depends on various factors, including the type of wig, how often you wear it, and your maintenance routine. Let’s break it down. Synthetic Wigs Revamp Frequency: Monthly Synthetic wigs are made from artificial fibres, which tend to tangle and lose their lustre more quickly than human hair wigs. Daily wear accelerates this process, especially around high-friction areas like the nape of the neck. If your synthetic wig has persistent frizziness or matting that won’t smooth out with brushing, it’s a clear sign it needs attention. A loss of shine or an overly “plastic” appearance can make the wig look unnatural and tired. Additionally, a stiff or coarse texture that feels far from lifelike is another indication that your wig is due for a refresh. Human Hair Wigs Revamp Frequency: Every 2–6 months. Human hair wigs are more durable and natural-looking, but they’re not invincible. Heat styling, colouring, and regular wear can […] The post How Often Should You Revamp Your Wig? appeared first on BN Style.
