ByEnigma 808

A Kenyan court just slapped a health official with an order to cough up nearly Ksh11 million he pocketed while juggling jobs he never actually showed up for.

Double-dipping scheme busted

  • Odhiambo Ottoman Adel Walter drew pay from two gigs.
  • Homa Bay County hired him despite his KMTC role.
  • Walter reportedly also moonlighted at Great Lakes University.
  • His county salary ran from mid-2016 through mid-2021.

EACC builds receipts against Walter

  • Three witnesses confirmed his overlapping employment setup.
  • Bank records proved he cashed checks from both.
  • Walter never testified or brought any defense witnesses.
  • He had previously offered to pay the money back.

Justice Musyoki’s ruling drops hard

  • Walter must refund Ksh10,991,712 within 90 days.
  • Interest keeps stacking from the original filing date.
  • EACC can launch recovery action if he ghosts.
  • Musyoki called simultaneous full-time roles flatly impossible.
