Wednesday, June 3, 2026 - A video has emerged showing an aerial view of the newly-built Encore Hotel and Resort, a multi-billion 5-star hotel owned by Nakuru Governor Susan Kihika and her husband, Sam Mburu, a businessman said to have connections to powerful individuals in Government.

The upscale facility features 205 elegantly designed rooms, including deluxe and executive suites, as well as an exclusive Presidential Suite, positioning the hotel to attract high-end corporate clients and premium leisure travellers.

The property is also purpose-built for conferences and events, boasting 23 modern meeting rooms, a grand ballroom, and a sprawling 3,500-square-metre landscaped events garden, making it ideal for large-scale functions and destination events in Nakuru.

Former Deputy President Rigathi Gachagua has previously accused Governor Kihika of misusing county funds to develop the hotel.

Gachagua alleged that Kihika looted county coffers and channelled the funds into the development of the luxurious facility.
