Amani National Congress (ANC) boss Musalia Mudavadi has come out clean on his financial status, describing himself as a financially stable person.
In an interview on Sunday, the leader admitted that he is indeed rich, admitting that he owns shares in some ventures across the nation, including an insurance company.
He, however, turned down attempts to have him declare his wealth but noted that he has enough to cater for his needs and meet his financial obligations, during K24's Punchline on Sunday.
"I am fairly wealthy. I am not a poor person. I can meet my obligations but I don't quantify myself in terms of numbers," he said, in response to host Anne Kiguta's queries on his wealth.
The former Vice President who also served as the co-Deputy Prime Minister in the Grand Coalition Government further rejected calls to declare how much he is worth.
"All I have said is that I am not a poor man," he added while rubbishing claims that he owns a banking institution.
Mudavadi has for long been ranked among the wealthiest leaders in the nation, owing to his long stay in politics, which has seen him serve in top government positions.
He has also been listed among a wealthy a powerful class of politicians whom allies of Deputy President William Ruto have branded "dynasties".
This is as a result of the fact that his father Moses Mudamba was also a minister in retired President Daniel Moi's regime.
