So two days ago i read a post on Robert Alai's page

"Hi Alai,
Now I am a member of stima sacco and something happened some few months ago,The ceo Mr.Wambua,corporate secretary and chief manager operations stima sacco colluded and gave Maseno university a loan of 3O million of which it was not a member of the sacco.This is where it gets interesting,they registered the institution with 10 million as deposits of the 30 million loan,so they deposited Maseno's a/c with 20 million.
This is contrary to stima sacco by-laws.As we speak there's an interim board of directors and invited an auditing firm.Infact they gave loans to Migori Teachers and KAAB illegally.Kenyans need to knw whats happening in this sacco,some of the board members have resigned already.There's corruption in stima sacco n a mega one."


Being a loyal client i think may he's just a disgruntled client. Then today i see this on the business daily

"Stima Sacco reshuffles top managers as CEO calls it a day"

OK... Now this is worrying, is there any place not touched by crooks? Have a significant deposit here. Someone kindly shred some light.

C&P from an email sent by a delegate to

"..We had a delegates meeting at KICD covering the following areas :
1. Irregular award of loans to specific companies by management way beyond board limits. The companies involved are :
· Maseno Univesity -75m
· Migori Teachers SACCO -25M
· KAAV -100M
The board have since suspended senior management staff –CEO, Company secretary and Head of operations. There is forensic audit currently ongoing to get the root of the matter. The board have taken action to recover all this funds since they were not secured.

2. Reduction of interest rates
The sacco has reduced interest in three products- Super loans ,Mwangaza, Premium to 14% p.a Reducing balance. It was initially 15%,16% and 16% respectively. This was necessitated by the movement by members to banks which created competition. The board promised that there will be no effect in this year’s dividends . The rest of the loans remain the same.

3. By laws review which is ongoing. Nothing much was discussed here
4. Mwiki land- They are in the process of disposing this land but it will depend on the highest bidder. If the proposed amount is lower that the current valuation, the land will still remain with the sacco. The previous board had bought this land at an inflated value and delegates chose to dispose rather than developing it.

More will be shared during the SGM coming in February."

If I were you I could be on my way to withdraw from the Sacco. In Kenya, when you hear a rumour always know there is some truth in it.

FACTS:-
1. Funds have been loaned out without any security.
2. CEO forced to resign.
3. You have your money there
4. You risk losing your savings

Not heard of any rumours, my comment is on Saccos in general.

Based on abit of knowledge on Cooperatives and how they run,there is no major cause of alarm unless the borrowers chew the money instead of using it for the intended purpose.

Stima Sacco is a big Sacco and therefore had excess funds which they lent to the other Saccos mentioned up there. Saccos mostly borrow to onlend to their members on short term basis.Mostly 12 months.Unless rhe Borrowing Saccos and their mother companies close shop which is unlikely,that is when people should worry.

The only mistake I see is the officials acting beyond their powers.
