A National Treasury employee has had his four bank accounts frozen over unexplained fortune amassed over the last five years.
Ethics and Anti-Corruption Commission (EACC) opened an investigation against Charles Muia Mutiso after his assets failed to match his known legitimate income.
Mutiso is the Deputy Director in charge of External Resources at the National Treasury, a position he has held since 2014.
Initial investigations by EACC revealed that Mutiso, who earns a monthly net salary of Sh144,675, has a total of Sh36,786,068.73 in four bank accounts. He also owns parcels of land in Nairobi, Donyo Sabuk, and Matungulu areas.
“Investigations have revealed that Charles Mutiso earned a monthly net salary of Kshs. 144,675.60, as of 30th April 2020 and an average net of Kshs 118,691.17 from 1st April 2015 to 30th April 2020. During this period, he earned a cumulative net income of Kshs 7,148,991.25,” EACC says.
EACC further says it discovered several unexplained inward remittances, EFTs, and cash deposits outside his salary. For instance, he reportedly made five cash deposits of Sh400,000 each into his account at Absa Group, totaling Sh2 million over just a few days.
The anti-graft agency has obtained court orders to freeze Mutiso’s accounts including two at ABSA Group Ltd with Sh23,452,775.65 and Sh5,843,390.35 respectively pending completion of investigations. He also holds a Co-operative Bank account with Sh1,932,167.53 and a KCB account with Sh5,557,735.20.
“It is apparent that there is a huge disproportion between Charles Mutiso’s assets and his known legitimate income. In accordance with the law, he shall have an opportunity to explain as investigations continue,” says EACC.

How FOOLISH and Greedy are these Corrupts getting? No wonder Obako used to call them “Mafi ya Kuku”.
Bwana Kinoti, Urithi has…
Bwana Kinoti, Urithi has another more fake project in Nyeri Town called “GOLDEN GREEN ESTATE”. This one Nyeri sales guy whenever a prospective buyer comes knocking his office, somehow he alerts his secretary to inform and dispatch well depressed goons to the Shamba so that by the time the prospective buyer gets chauffeured with Urithi Van, the prospective buyer would find these goons busy looming in the property pretending to be buyers where the Urithi sales guy start engaging with them to make it look real. In 2017, this Urithi sales guy weighed about 60 KGs and today he is close to 100 KG. To say the least, Nyeri Golden Greens is a charm. I am being honest they have swindled my beloved son in the diaspora and who is now suffering from deep depression. Imagine muriu wakua athambigia tuthee tukuru America and he was ready to return home and build a few apartments after completing payments on a 10M fake plot at GOLDEN GREEN ESTATE in Nyeri. Ndahoya Ngai amagithie ene Urithi thayu matuku maria mothe magutura muhuro wa riua na njiaruo chiao mindi na mindi. Please Bwana Kinoti arrest Samuel Maina, Moses Kiarie and the entire Urithi fake Management Team.
