He searched for him for a while, "Nikiwa hali ya kumtafuta, nikaona tayari naambiwa tumepostiwa hewani,"
A fearful Eli took off as well on foot. They later took a vehicle without number plates to travel to the village. "Ilibidi nijifiche, sababu wananchi wanaweza chukuwa mkononi. Wanaweza kukuota uhai," he shared.
Jalang'o asked Eli who took the money from his car. "It's Morris who took the money."
The MP told Eli that they launched a manhunt even to the village, but the two could not be traced. "Sisi kuwafuata nyumbani tumepata mumehamisha vitu, what was going on?"
Eli told Jalang'o that it appeared that way because he found his wife had deserted their matrimonial home. Eli and Litiema consulted each other about the theft and what to do next.
"Umechukuwa hii mali, tufanye aje? Ndio akasema tugawanye nus nusu. He told me he had found sh1million. Note mpay akabisa, haikuwa imetumika pahali."
Eli expressed regret for stealing, a habit he claimed he doesn't have. Jalang'o wanted to know what their next plan was after dividing the money.
Eli said they were scared, fearing arrest. he went to Bungoma where he became a fugitive. "Tulikuwa tunajutia tufanye aje, juu saa hii picha tayari iko hewani, huwezi tembea."
They took a private vehicle without plates to escape Kenya. "Kuna hutu numberless Mombasa mpaka Uganda. Hutu tunumberless, mtu amenunua gari, anatuma driver."
They paid off people to escape through different routes. "Kujificha sio mchezo."
Eli and Litiema then split ways.
Eli says he has learnt a lesson not to be greedy, "Nikaona heri nitafute ile kidogo kidogo, tusiende mbio sana, ipo siku tuu," he recounted, adding how he would call Jalango often to apologize.
He thanked the politician for forgiving them, saying he won't repeat the offense. "Saa hii nimerudi, hakuna wasi wasi na mimi, usikuwe na wasi wasi, pesa unawacha tuu kwa gari."
