Kenyans give their thoughts about CS's net worth to Maina

Maina Kageni and Mwalimu King'ang'i continued their discussion on the vetting of Cabinet Secretary nominees and their net worths.

“The vetting of Cabinet Secretary nominees concluded yesterday,” Maina began.

They highlighted the following details:

• Mining Cabinet Secretary nominee Hassan Joho was the first to face the Committee on Appointments. Joho revealed that his net worth is Sh2 billion.
• Cooperatives and MSMEs Development Cabinet nominee Wycliffe Oparanya was the third to be vetted. Oparanya disclosed a net worth of Sh600 million.
• Alfred Mutua was the second nominee vetted on the fourth day, and he reported an increase in his net worth by Sh42 million.

Maina asked, “What were your thoughts when you saw those figures?”

Here are some listener reactions:

• Kenneth Mittow: “There’s no logic in paying these guys for services they would be offering. They should work for free.”
• Senorpartner: “They might not come to steal. Maybe they have enough.”
• Coolsmallbrother: “There’s no sign of Sh2 billion on him. He looks like everyone else. Money is just a title.”
• ERIC NYAMWAKA: “The figures are far from the truth. No one can tell you their exact net worth, including you, Maina.”
