In October 2026, Milimani Anti-Corruption Court Magistrate Rose Ndombi sentenced former NuPEA accountant Lilian Mweche Muyumba to a Ksh130,000 fine for falsifying academic documents. Muyumba pleaded guilty to two charges under a plea agreement with the Director of Public Prosecutions. She was fined Ksh30,000 for uttering a false document and Ksh100,000 for presenting a forged certificate.
If she fails to pay, Muyumba faces a year in prison for the first charge and two years for the second. An EACC investigation revealed that Muyumba submitted a forged KCSE certificate from Moi Girls Secondary School, Nangili, obtained in 1996, to secure employment at NuPEA. She faced three charges: forgery of a KCSE certificate, uttering a false document, and presenting a forged certificate.
