Two Ugandan claiming to be a chemical engineer and his nephew have been jailed for six months each after pleading guilty to a charge of failing to pay a bill of more than Sh26,000.
The two failed to pay their hotel bills after being accommodated for three days.
Alternatively, the court ordered engineer Sebowa Kiboigo and his nephew Mathias Magemeso to pay a fine of Sh200,000 each.
The two admitted the charge after they appeared before senior principal Magistrate Peter Ooko.
“You are convicted on your own plea of guilty and are hereby jailed for six months or pay a fine of 20,000 each and upon fine payments or serving sentence you shall be repatriated back to your country,” ordered Magistrate Ooko.
The two are accused that on March 9,10 and 19 they checked in at Kenya Comfort Hotel in Nairobi, and obtained a credit of Ksh26,900.

The two allegedly pretended that they had Ugandan currency and needed time to change it into Kenya shillings.
The witty Kiboigo told the court that he is a chemical engineer who studied in United States.
