Emerging details have indicated that former Nairobi governor Evans Kidero indeed engaged in some dirty dealings while in office, among them embezzlement of county coffers.
This follows claims that a total of Sh48 million found their way into Kidero's accounts from the Kenya Commercial Bank between between August and September 2014.
According to a banker, funds were transfered to two companies' account's before being transfered to his accounts and that of his official Stephen Osiro at the Family and NIC banks.
KCB Kimathi Branch manager Nkatha Mirero told the court that other funds were sent to former Head of Accounts in Kidero's leadership Osiro from Ngurumai Traders and Lodwar Wholesalers companies and indicated as payments for sugar.
This she said while being cross-examined by prosecutor Joseph Gitonga on Wednesday.
However, she said that there was no need to raise alarm over the transactions as the payments were accompanied by the necessary supporting documents.
Kidero and other officials who served in his leadership are under probe over alleged embezzlement of Sh213 million.
Two companies' officials who are as well part of the group and are facing charges of fraudulently receiving payments from the county.
Kidero and team are facing a total of 35 counts, which they have since denied.
