"How did you manage to purchase a Range Rover worth Ksh40 million? From which business so that we can also venture?" Alfred Ndenge asked on x, formerly Twitter.

"Gift from my husband," she responded.

On the other hand, she maintained that she was not undertaking any business with the current administration.

She confirmed that she was a businesswoman. However, she detailed that she had no tender in any government institution.

On the other hand, Omanga clarified that she was not earning any salary from the government following her nomination as the Chief Administrative Secretary (CAS).

Omanga was responding to reports that she won a tender to supply furniture to State House to the tune of billions. State House is currently undergoing major repairs.

"I need to clear a misconception. I neither work for the government nor am I a tenderpreneuer in this government. I'm a private person doing private business.

"I've never benefited from this gov either in cash or in kind," she added.
