Wednesday, October 21, 2026 - The Ethics and Anti-Corruption Commission (EACC) has secured court orders forfeiting assets worth KSh 207.7 million linked to Andrew Biketi Musuya, a former accountant with the Ministry of Public Health and Sanitation and the Trans Nzoia County Government.
The
High Court’s Anti-Corruption and Economic Crimes Division ruled that Musuya had
failed to satisfactorily explain the discrepancy between his wealth and his
known legitimate income.
Justice
Rose Ougo delivered the judgment in a case filed by EACC in 2019 following
investigations into his assets and financial transactions between January 2013
and October 2018.
The
forfeited assets include properties in Mombasa and Bungoma valued at KSh 150.2
million, bank and M-Pesa deposits totalling KSh 53.5 million, and two vehicles
valued at KSh 4 million, according to the commission.
The
properties include two five-storey apartment blocks and a five-bedroom
townhouse in Mtwapa, alongside seven undeveloped parcels of land.
The
court also ordered the forfeiture of a Toyota saloon registered to Musuya and a
Toyota Harrier registered to an interested party.
Additionally,
bank deposits amounting to KSh 45.5 million and approximately KSh 8 million
held in two M-Pesa accounts were ordered forfeited to the State.
However,
the court dismissed EACC’s claim seeking the forfeiture of a Toyota Prado held
by Wachenya Auto Garage, citing insufficient evidence to justify taking away
the garage’s ownership interest.
During
the proceedings, EACC told the court that it had identified assets and funds
worth KSh 289.9 million linked to Musuya, including land valued at KSh 226.8
million, vehicles worth KSh 9.6 million and bank and mobile-money deposits
totalling KSh 53.5 million.
The
commission estimated his known legitimate income during the period under
investigation at approximately KSh 5.8 million, forming the basis of its
unexplained-wealth case.
