Gospel Singer Ringtone Remanded Over Alleged Karen Land Scam
A Nairobi court has denied bail to popular gospel musician Alex Apoko, widely known as Ringtone, who is facing serious fraud charges linked to a disputed Ksh50 million parcel of land in the affluent Karen neighborhood. Milimani Senior Principal Magistrate Dolphina Alego on Thursday ruled that both Apoko and his co-accused, Alfred Juma Ayora, will remain in custody. The two pleaded not guilty to conspiracy to defraud Nairobi businesswoman Teresia Adhiambo Odhiambo of a prime piece of land measuring 0.1908 hectares. The magistrate ordered that Apoko be held at the Industrial Area Prison until Monday, May 19, when the court will receive a pre-bail report before deciding whether to grant him bail.
