The Unclaimed Financial Assets Authority (UFAA) has announced that more than Ksh 106 billion in unclaimed assets is waiting to be returned to rightful owners on Sunday, November 30, 2025.
Speaking at Thika Stadium, UFAA Chairperson Dr. Kigo Njenga revealed that the authority is racing to reunite citizens with their forgotten wealth.
He explained that Ksh44 billion of the total amount is in cash, while the rest is in shares held by financial institutions.
Hundreds of residents from the Mt. Kenya region turned up at the stadium to verify their details, hoping to discover whether they or their relatives had unclaimed assets.
Dr. Kigo urged Kenyans to take advantage of the initiative by checking their records.
“The Ksh 106 Billion goes back to the people of Kenya, so that we can fund the bottom-up economic agenda for our government,” he stated.
He added that these are funds people did not even know they had.
He added that the move is designed to stimulate the economy by channeling money back into the hands of citizens.
According to UFAA, accessibility has been boosted through partnerships with other agencies to make the service available across the country.
Dr. Kigo stated that last year alone, residents of the Mt. Kenya region received Ksh 216 million in unclaimed money.
UFAA urged Kenyans to check whether they or their families are among those with unclaimed assets.
