This is how RUTO is involved in the Ksh 25 billion money laundering scheme being investigated by Interpol – This man is dangerous (READ)

 By Wahome Thuku.

Between October 19th and November 2020, Ksh25.6 billion is wired into Kenya from Nigeria and Hong Kong in a mega, mysterious syndicate.

At least 10 companies are involved all registered across the world in same or similar names by the same set of persons.

Ksh20 billion is then wired out to Europe and Asia or probably just withdrawn in Kenya.

Ksh5 billion is frozen by the High Court in accounts held by some of the companies in two Banks – Equity and UBA.

This follows an application by Assets Recovery Agency (ARA) this month after the syndicate is flagged by Interpol.

Kenyan investigators and the media are now on the paper trail. The media claims a top Kenyan politician is at the center of the ring.

Well the web is huge. The companies are a complex network as you can see below.

I read the articles in newspapers and social media and tried to play around with the facts, names, figures and dates, it’s very interesting.

On 25th October 2019 for example Yemi Osinbajo and his wife Oludolapo Osinbajo hosted Kenya’s Second Lady Rachel Ruto at a church event in Lagos and later at their home in Abuja, Nigeria. Rachel twitter that.

A month later on 29th November 2019 Rachel hosted Mrs Osinbajo at Kasarani Moi International Sport Center Nairobi for the 10th anniversary and fund raiser of her table banking NGO, Joyful Women (Joywo).

On 20th November 2020 Deputy President William Ruto flew to Dubai in a trip that sparked off speculations on social media.

His handlers concealed the purpose and itinerary of the trip until it was disclosed by bloggers.

It was then revealed that in Dubai he met with former Nigerian Vice President Atiku Abubakar and Timi Frank- a political ally of VP Yemi Osinbajo.

Timi Frank had also met William Ruto earlier on 14th August 2020 at Kempinski Hotel, Nairobi.

A network of close buddies and their hustles. Really close.
