Title: Kerra manager accumulate 1b
Post by: RV Pundit on August 04, 2021, 02:29:07 PM
”A senior official at a public roads agency risks losing half a billion shillings stashed in 22 bank accounts, 27 properties, shares in multiple companies and schools linked to kickbacks from contractors to the State.
The anti-graft agency has applied for the seizure and forfeiture of the assets by Benson Muteti Musila, a regional manager at the Kenya Rural Roads Authority (KeRRA), saying they are part of unexplained wealth worth Sh952.3 million.” Business Daily

Now this is just an omena. What about those mbutas in the road construction departments like the former CS and former PS for Transport Michael Kamau?
Those roads and highways being constructed in Kenya are 300% overpriced.

Yes they are overprized - by 10-20 percent or about. 300 percent is an exaggeration. ARA approach is working for middle leve. CS/PS/PORK hapo bado

Pundit, I see those prices for road construction and compare with here seeing the quality of the end product and I can assure you those prices are much exagerrated. 10-20% is a joke. Labour is cheap in Kenya and that is what is mostly used. There is no reason for building prices in Kenya to compete with European prices.

Kamau was kicked out very early in Uhurus Presidency . There is a reason Macharia a former C.E.O. of NIC bank was given Ministry of Health then transfered to Ministry of Transport. He is responsible for the so called Legacy projects . Thats where the fattest and sweetest meat can be found.

No, Eng Kamau stayed long enough to build himself a Radisson Blue hotel in Upperhill - that is serious money. Macharia has definitely stolen - so much. The KENHA director had also stolen so much he was refusing to quit office. There are merus pale Kenha who have been at it for the longest. KURA, KERRA and KENHA definitely big fat cats.

ARA approach is only hope against graft. Just wait for them to accumulate the wealth and go and nationalize all of them. No need for prison and long court cases.

Yes, and also is difficult comparison,lots of incidental cost.
But he could be right - cost 3 times more than in Ethiopia?

Kamau did less than 2 years as CS of Transport under Uhurus regime. However he was a longstanding PS of Roads for about 10 years under Kibaki regime.
Yes the only way Mafias were defeated in U.S.A. is freezing their wealth before the cases meaning no money to hire outstanding lawyers,corrupt prosecutors , Judges and intimidate  or eliminate suspects.
This is the only effective weapon against corruption.

He stole mostly under Kibaki - bought himself a plot in Upperhill and built the hotel in Jubilee -
Yes the ARA is exciting - esp dealing with middle-level criminals enablers of graft.
Once you make them afraid - it becomes hard for top level to misuse them.
But you can bet they will find ways to hide their money - including in bitcoins and abroad.

So far only two thieves of KeRRA have been exposed. The bigger department with a much larger budget KeNHA has so far been left alone. Here is where the mbutas act and seem to be above the Kenyan law.
