There are cases of bank staff who stole money from fixed deposit accounts. There are cases of back staff who would alter the numbers of peoplesâ accounts and transfer money to different accounts whose recipient is known to the bank staff. The person whose account the money is transferred from loses it. All this is in the public domain. For example, on the 24th of March, 2010, a Mr. Kimani, the branch manager of Credit Bank, together with a clerk called Justus Makau, were charged with stealing Kshs.7.4 million from the Koinange Street branch. The offence was committed on the 19th of March, 2010. On the same day, a Mr. Kimani together with one Dorcas denied stealing Kshs.21.9 million from the same bank. Both were released on bond. Two more staff were charged with stealing close to Kshs.10 million from the African Banking Corporation. Both Were released on bond. More staff were also charged with stealing Kshs.2.8 million from the Co-operative Bank, Parliament Road branch. So, Mr. Assistant Minister, your answer is very cosmetic. If you consult the banks that I have mentioned---"
