Tuesday, June 21, 2022 –A 30-year old junior government officer has been busted with a whopping sh 18 million lying idle in her bank accounts.
Anti-corruption commission EACC today Tuesday June 21 managed to obtain legal orders to freeze the millions belonging to the female National Treasury official; the money believed to have been fraudulently acquired.
Citizen Digital reported that Tracy Njoki King’e, a Finance officer II at the National Treasury, received a total of sh 37 million in her bank accounts between dates March 2020 and May 2022 despite her monthly salary being a paltry sh 50,954.53 per month.
EACC detailed that sh 37 million was mysteriously wired to Njoki’s Co-operative and I & M bank accounts as imprests, facilitation and extraneous allowance.
And between February 2020 and March 2022, she also received sh 24,119,926.00 in her Co-op bank account while between February 2022 and June 2022 she received another puzzling sh.11,899,052.00 into her I&M account.
“Preliminary investigations established that out of the Ksh.11.8 million received through her I&M bank account, a sum of Ksh.11 million was transferred to her fixed deposit accounts in the same bank while sh 498,000.00 was withdrawn in cash leaving a balance of Ksh.400,000.00,” EACC statement noted on Tuesday.
Additionally, EACC further established that out of sh 24 million received through her Cooperative Bank account, a sum of sh 4.6 million was used to Purchase Treasury Bills, while sh 2.7 million is the balance currently in the accounts.
The accounts have since been frozen until investigations to ascertain the exact source of her wealth is concluded.
