Several years before that particular compe, i actually walked into times towers, i think 9th floor, explained my situation to an official, something to the effect that i was anticipating winning some large sums of money, he advised me to write to the commissioner in charge of income tax explaining everything. I never did and neither did I win that particular competition.

In my defence, I was a young, foolish and impressionable college student with grossly misplaced patriotic sentiments.

Just a small question, has anyone ever won a (mpnetary) prize in an international competition and got paid for it oin Kenya? How is this addressed by our KRA?

I brought 2 street dogs here with me from UG (my wife insisted), KRA
declared the value of these mutts as 10000 Kshs (actual price paid for
dogs=ZERO). I told the KRA lady that if that was the case, I would
gladly sell her the dogs, but she didn't bite. I had to pay ~4000 bob
just to KRA!

Pissed me off no end, absolutely unreasonable.
