Sh7.4 Billion Graft Case Against Deputy President Gachagua Adjourned
A Nairobi court has adjourned the Sh7.3 billion graft case against Deputy President Rigathi Gachagua after he filed an application seeking to have the matter reviewed.
The case was scheduled for a hearing starting Monday, but the court was told that Gachagua has written to the Office of the Director of Public Prosecutions (ODPP) to have the matter reviewed.
The ODPP requested the court to give it more time to review the case, noting that it had received a number of letters seeking a review.
The matter will be heard on November 21st.
In this case, Gachagua is charged with conspiracy to commit an offense of corruption, fraudulent acquisition of public property, money laundering, acquisition of proceeds of crime, and conflict of interest.
He is charged alongside William Wahome Mwangi, Anne Nduta Ruo, Julianne Jahenda Makaa, Samuel Murimi, Grace Wambui Kariuki, Lawrence Kimaru, Irene Wambui Ndigiriri, David Reuben, and a company M/s Rapid Medical Supplies.
The charge sheet read that on diverse dates between 2013 and 2020, Gachagua fraudulently received Sh7,330,011,265 through three bank accounts at Rafiki Micro-Finance bank while knowing that the monies were proceeds of crime.
He was charged that on December 29th, 2014 in Nairobi, jointly with others not before the court, he fraudulently acquired Sh6 million public funds for the supply of dialysis machines to Nyeri Provincial General Hospital.
Gachagua was also charged with money laundering for receiving Sh104,821,205 from Bungoma County Government between January 2018 and June 2019, with intent to unlawfully dispose of the money.
He is also alleged to have received Sh7,583,505 from Kwale County Government with intent to unlawfully dispose of the money.

I am not of the opinion that Gachagua acquired that kind of money through fraudulent means because I cannot defend that opinion but in a poor third world country, how did he manage?

This case is going nowhere. The closest thing to punishment will be on those charged along side Gachagua.They will receive a slap on the arm,and then case withdrawn,and life as we know it in Kenya shall continue as usual.

Serikali ya "Kenya Mpya" yatisha kuliko serikali zote zilizotangulia serikali hii ya mapwaguzi (hustlers).
Tafsiri ya neno 'pwaguzi" kwa Kiingereza ni "skilled cheat."
Tulionywa na rasi mstaafu Ndugu Uhuru Ngina Kamau juu ya Ndugu Samoei. Ndugu huyu hakufanya kazi kwa musa wa miaka minne huku akigombea urais wa nchi. Isitoshe, alipata ulinzi wa serikali na mali zake zote mpaka akasomea shahada ya uzamivu (PhD) akiwa yungali makamu wa rais.
Alipokuwa akitafuta urais, alivaa nguo madoadoa kama chui! Unaona jinsi anavyovaa sasa?

In the meantime, how many "hustlers" are locked up because they vandalized street signs and barriers to sell for 500 schillings in order to provide for their families?
