NTV has documented former CBK Deputy Governor Jacinta Mwatela’s 32 years at the Central Bank and the scandals she says she encountered.
Here are the full highlights from the scandals.

Daughter of Agrippina alifanyiwa ile kitu Luthuli Avenue. But Kenyans never learn. There’s no genuine seller along Luthuli Avenue because, if there were, they wouldn’t be entertaining those mikoras. Unfortunately, the police are always in cahoots with these Luthuli errant traders.
Naivasha MP Jayne Kihara and Nairobi Woman Representative Esther Passaris engaged in a fierce exchange during a live broadcast on TV47.
The confrontation escalated rapidly after Passaris accused Kihara of political incitement related to the 2007 post-election violence in Naivasha.
In a highly charged response, Kihara furiously rejected the allegations, stating "I could hit her!" and calling Passaris a "mad woman" before attempting to walk off the set.
Host Fred Indimuli was forced to temporarily mute both politicians' microphones to regain control of the live broadcast.
Kenya Airports Authority officials are now stealing from tourists. After highlighting my experience of refusing to pay a bribe to an officer called Maina at the JKIA parking area, some tourists have also come forward to expose KAA officers for allegedly accessing their purse and stealing over $5,000. In this video, KAA officers who are mandated to protect, secure, and guide travellers are now going as far as stealing from tourists and philanthropists.
What’s most unfortunate is that when JKIA police were called to intervene, they harassed the tourists and told them to go and report the matter to another police station or go to the Inspector General of Police. The tourists were also reportedly denied access to CCTV footage because the KAA officials knew it could expose what had happened.
JKIA has become a safe haven for corrupt officials, especially in the parking area. It is even alleged that some top KAA officials, including the Chairperson & CEO are involved/Aware. These are not just allegations, but real experience that I witnessed first hand on Monday evening. This country is rotten to the core.
Former Governor of the Central Bank of Kenya, Dr. Patrick Njoroge, on assuming office & the collapse of three banks (Dubai, Imperial & Chase) in quick succession.
He says of the three, the collapse of Chase in April 2026 inflicted the largest impact on the banking ecosystem.
He says the collapse of the three was "good" in the sense that it triggered a culture change in the country's banking ecosystem.

El Niño: Brace For Impact
If you've been wondering why this year's cold season doesn't feel quite as cold, meteorologists say it's because several climate systems are already at play, with a very strong El Niño expected to develop later this year, bringing the possibility of above-average rainfall and flooding.

The Owl Who Knew the Desert
A Salty Desert Dawg Campfire Tale in Five Nights
"Come closer, young pups."
The old Desert Dawg tossed another stick onto the fire. Sparks danced up toward the stars like tiny glowing birds.
"Tonight I'm going to tell you about someone very old."
The pups looked around.
"A coyote?" one whispered.
The old dog smiled.
"No."
"A rattlesnake?"
"No."
"A mountain lion?"
The old dog pointed toward the dark hills.
"Older than all of them."
Just then...
Hoo... hoo...
Every pup froze.
"The owl," whispered the smallest Chihuahua.
The old dog tipped his hat.
"That's right."
"Now remember this, pups. Every family in the desert tells owl stories a little differently. Some say Owl is a wise teacher. Some say Owl brings warnings. Some say Owl guards old secrets. None of those stories are wrong. The desert is a big place, and it has room for many stories."
The pups nodded.
"Ready?"
The fire cracked.
The stars leaned closer.
And the owl called again.

Night One — The First Hoot
Sometimes the first lesson is simply paying attention.
A young traveler hears an owl while crossing the desert.
He wants answers.
Instead, the old Desert Dawg teaches him something surprising:
"Before you ask what it means...
...first notice what is happening around you."
That night the traveler discovers the desert has been talking all along.
The wind.
The cactus.
The insects.
The moon.
The silence.
The owl was simply the one who helped him listen.

Moonlit desert.
A giant saguaro.
One small traveler.
One quiet owl.
Tiny glowing symbols hidden among the stars for sharp-eyed pups to discover.

Night Two — Every Campfire Has a Story
Different stories can all carry truth.
The traveler meets families from across the desert.
Each tells a different owl story.
Nobody argues.
Nobody laughs.
Everyone listens.
The old Desert Dawg chuckles.
"The smartest ears are the ones that stay open."
The traveler learns something bigger than any single story.
Respect comes before understanding.
Codex Art
Many campfires scattered across the desert.
Different families.
Different songs.
One owl flying peacefully above them all.

Night Three — The Owl Never Forgot
Stories can survive even when times become difficult.
New people arrive.
New buildings rise.
Old ways are tested.
Some stories become whispers.
Some hide inside songs.
Some live inside grandparents' memories.
But every night...
The owl still flies.
Watching.
Waiting.
Remembering.
The traveler begins to understand.
Stories are tougher than stone.
Codex Art
An old desert trail beside an old mission.
The owl flying between both worlds beneath a sky full of stars.

Night Four — The Quiet Question
The greatest answers often begin with a question.
Years later the traveler returns.
Life has become noisy.
Machines hum.
Phones glow.
People hurry.
Then...
Hoo... hoo...
The traveler smiles.
This time he doesn't ask,
"What does the owl want?"
He asks,
"What have I stopped noticing?"
The whole desert suddenly feels alive again.
Codex Art
A campfire.
A sleeping truck.
A phone lying quietly beside a coffee cup.
An owl watching from a fence post while the Milky Way stretches overhead.

Night Five — The Fire Never Goes Out
Good stories are meant to be shared.
Now the traveler has become the old Desert Dawg.
Young pups gather around the same fire.
They ask,
"What does the owl really mean?"
The old dog smiles.
"It means..."
He looks up.
The owl calls once.
"...that sometimes the best thing you can do..."
The fire pops.
The stars shine.
"...is be quiet...
...and listen."
Every pup smiles.
The owl disappears into the night.
The story belongs to the next generation now.

No matter how much you may like your job,
The day will come when your body and/or mind will say "that's it, I'm done here"
Your investments will never experience that exhaustion.
They will continue working for you long after you've thrown in the towel on work.
Rule of Thumb: Your rent should not exceed 25% of your income.
For example, if your net monthly income is Ksh. 60,000, aim to keep your rent below Ksh. 15,000.
Remember, this is a general guideline designed to help balance rent with other financial priorities. Adjust it based on your income, lifestyle, and financial goals.
