Former PS Lillian Omollo's Three Children Linked to NYS Scam over Millions Wired to their Bank Accounts

Detectives are investigating former Youth Affairs Principal Secretary Lillian Omollo over millions of shillings deposited in her children’s bank accounts.

Ms Omollo, a prime suspect in the multi-million shilling National Youth Service (NYS) scandal, allegedly wired the said cash into bank accounts belonging to her three children namely Sheela Mbogo, Stephanie Mbogo and Shalom Kamwetu.

Investigators say the funds were deposited in the months when the National Youth Service (NYS) looting was reportedly taking place.

In court documents, the Asset Recovery Agency (ARA) revealed that huge amounts including a cash deposit of Sh20 million on April 20th were channeled to the accounts registered under the three.

Several business-people and top government officials among them Ms Omollo were charged in May with various offences related to the NYS scam. 

“All the accounts held at Diamond Trust Bank (DTB) are in names of the sons and daughters of Lilian Muthoni Mbogo,” said ARA in court documents where it is pushing for a freeze in the bank accounts.

“That on or about 20th day of April 2018 … the accounts received Sh20 million suspected to be proceeds or crime or money laundering from the NYS.”

The former PS is believed to have deposited the money to the accounts in batches of Sh900,000 to escape the reporting threshold.

“On analysing the accounts, it is clear that the monies were deposited in cash, raising suspicion of possible money laundering and proceeds of crime,” ARA further says in papers filed in court.

  1. Kwa nini Dada Waiguru…
    Kwa nini Dada Waiguru hatajwi wala hasikiki siku hizi kwenye mambo ya ufisadi?

    Dada Waiguru na Ndugu Ruto wanajulikana sana na pia walitajwa na wananchi kama “Wafisadi Wakuu” wa nchi ya Kenya.

    Yafaa washikwe na pia wafukuzwe kutoka kazini mara moja.

    Ndugu Tutu wa Afrika ya Kusini alisema:

    “If you are silent in situations of injustice, you have taken the side of the oppressor.”

    Hayati Ndugu Mahatma Gandhi wa India naye alisema:

    “The only devils in the world are those running around in our own hearts, and that is where all our battles ought to be fought.”

    Mimi naamini kwa dhati ya kwamba, hakuna shetani ambaye amejificha pangoni au mahali pengine ambapo haonekani. Shetani halisi ni binadamu tunayemwona kila siku.

    Hii kenya yetu ni nchi ya mafisi kabisa. Kwa ile ziwa la moto kule, wakenya wengi ndio watakuwa kuni za kuchachia hiyo moto ya milele na milele siku ya kiama.

    Ndugu@Kenya na pia Ndugu @D. Mwose: Nimesoma kwa makini mliyoandika hapa, na nilitaka kuongeza maoni yangu binafsi ambayo yatamfanya Mkenyareza/Mkenyalish kufikiria zaidi kabla hajaiba hata senti moja inayotokana na mali ya umma.

    Dawa ya wezi wa mali ya umma si kuwafunga jela na kuwalisha chakula wakiwa jelani. Kama nilivyosikia (sijui kama ni kweli), wafungwa hutoa rushwa na kuachiliwa huru baada ya kufungwa jela. Maoni yangu kwa wezi hawa ni:

    1. Kukusanya hela/pesa zote walizoiba.

    2. Kuchukua mali yote waliyo nayo kama motokaa, mashamba, biashara, majumba ma kuuuzia wananchi kwa bei ya kawaida.

    3. Kukusanya mali ya watoto wake, mke/mume na kuyauza.

    4. Kuchukua vitambulisho vyote ili asije akatoroka na kwenda katika nchi nyingine.

    5. Kushirikiana na benki zote ulimwenguni kuona hela ambazo amezificha huko na kuzirudisha nchini.

    Nina hakika ni watu wachache sana watakaoendelea na mambo ya ufisadi kama hatua hizo tano zitafuatwa na serikali pamoja na mahakama ya nchi.

    Why would greed lead you to seek a curse on your children? Go stealing yourself but dragging kids into it???
