Kibwezi West MP Mwengi Mutuse has disputed assertions by Deputy President Rigathi Gachagua that the vast portion of Sh5.2 billion wealth cited in his impeachment belongs to his late brother Nderitu Gachagua.
Tabling his evidence on the floor of the House on Tuesday morning, Mutuse alleged that Gachagua bought off his late brother's prime properties at collossal amounts, in some cases through coercion since he took power.
The first-time lawmaker tabled evidence showing Gachagua acquired Aberdare Safari Hotel through transferred ownership which is worth Sh535 million. Mutuse alleged that Gachagua and his proxies have used several companies to launder money, conceal proceeds of crime, and engage in influence peddling. In his address from the official residence in Karen, Gachagua used the opportunity"to give my side of the story," criticizing his opponents for attempting to overturn the will of the people who elected him.He listed several properties, including Olive Garden, Vipingo Beach Resort, Queen's Gate apartments, and Lang'ata High Rise Flats, as part of the inheritance from the late Nyeri Governor Nderitu Gachagua.
