The Ethics and Anti-Corruption Commission is seeking orders to freeze assets belonging to a Nairobi County Government official.
According to the anti-graft body the officer identified as Jimmy Kiamba is living too large for his modest monthly salary of Sh85,000.
EACC has reportedly revealed a massive empire owned Mr Kiamba who is the Chief Finance Officer of Nairobi County.
Mr Kiamba’s alleged fraudulently acquired property includes two maisonettes in South C, a plush town house in Kileleshwa, four apartments in Kilimani and eight plots of land in Muthaiga, Mavoko and Machakos.
The suspended Chief Finance Officer according to a Business Daily report also owns a fleet of six cars.
EACC wants the High Court to freeze his bank accounts as investigations continue into claims that he stole millions of shillings from City Hall between January and November last year.
Two of Mr Kiamba's accounts with CFC Stanbic Bank were allegedly used to transact more than Sh400 million between January and November 2014.
The City Hall official has been previously charged in the Chief Magistrate’s court with defrauding City Hall of millions of shillings.
In April he was accused alongside his secretary Regina Rotich of conspiring to defraud the county of Sh17.9 million.
He has also stands accused of forging documents for purposes of embezzling funds, and is out on a Sh2 million cash bail.
The City hall CFO has challenged the freezing of his property insisting that the property is registered to Jimise Limited and his wife, Tracy Mbinya Musau, and is charged to Equity Bank for loans that are still being payed.
According to a Standard report Mr Kiamba was suspended in April 2014, over alleged financial scam at City hall.
