Summary

On 28 October 2024 the High Court found that Urbanus Wambua Musyoka, a former Machakos County executive, held unexplained assets: bank amounts of about KSh10.95 million and the cost of building a residence, for which it entered a money judgment of KSh80,251,815. The land under the building was not itself proved unexplained. He signalled an appeal, and in February 2025 the court granted a stay on condition that security be deposited. This is a civil finding, not a criminal conviction.
