The Director of Right Choice Tours And Safaris has been charged before a Nairobi court for allegedly obtaining USD 16,708 from tourism clients under false pretences.

George Ogunda Okech was arraigned before Magistrate Irene Thamara, where the prosecution alleged that on diverse dates between December 8, 2025 and January 20, 2026, at Town House in Nairobi’s Central Business District, he unlawfully obtained USD 12,450 from one of his clients.

According to the prosecution, Okech, in his capacity as Director of the tour company, falsely represented to Jean Jacques that he would organize and facilitate tourist activities for him and his colleagues in various parts of the country, thereby inducing him to part with the funds.

He faces a second count of unlawfully obtaining USD 4,258 from another client, Youakim Alexandre, by similarly claiming he would arrange tourist activities in different destinations across Kenya.

The accused denied the charges.

The court released him on a bond of Ksh 500,000 with an alternative cash bail of Ksh 100,000. The matter is scheduled for mention and further directions on March 4, 2026.
