Kiambu Governor Kimani Wamatangi is at the center of a Kshs 1.5 billion corruption scandal after authorities discovered huge sums of money in his office, home, and car.
Stacks of Cash Uncovered
Investigators found Kshs 12 million and USD 13,000 in the governor’s house, along with Kshs 500,000 stashed in his car’s glove compartment. The discovery comes amid a probe into a Kshs 1.5 billion corruption scandal rocking Kiambu County.
Wamatangi Under Fire
Wamatangi, who has faced multiple graft allegations, now risks prosecution as anti-graft agencies intensify investigations. Sources claim the money may be linked to misused county funds, with auditors flagging suspicious transactions.
Public Outrage Grows
Residents and activists are demanding immediate action, calling for Wamatangi’s resignation and prosecution. “This is taxpayers’ money—we demand accountability!” said a local activist.
What’s Next?
The Ethics and Anti-Corruption Commission (EACC) is expected to arrest and charge the governor soon. Will Wamatangi step down, or will he fight the allegation.
