The Unclaimed Financial Assets Authority has revealed over Ksh 106 billion in unclaimed assets ready for return to owners. Speaking at Thika Stadium, chairperson Dr. Kigo Njenga highlighted the initiative's role in boosting Kenya's economy. Residents from the Mt. Kenya region gathered to check their eligibility.
On November 30, 2025, the Unclaimed Financial Assets Authority (UFAA) disclosed that more than Ksh 106 billion worth of unclaimed assets awaits reunification with rightful owners across Kenya. At an event held at Thika Stadium, UFAA chairperson Dr. Kigo Njenga emphasized the urgency of the effort, noting that Ksh 44 billion of this amount consists of cash, with the remainder comprising shares managed by various financial institutions.
Hundreds of attendees from the Mt. Kenya region arrived at the stadium to verify personal and family details, eager to uncover any forgotten funds. Dr. Njenga encouraged all Kenyans to participate, stating, “The Ksh 106 Billion goes back to the people of Kenya, so that we can fund the bottom-up economic agenda for our government.” He pointed out that many of these assets represent money individuals were unaware they possessed, and returning them would inject vitality into the national economy by placing resources directly into citizens' hands.
To enhance reach, UFAA has collaborated with other agencies, extending services nationwide. Last year, this initiative benefited the Mt. Kenya region with Ksh 216 million in recovered unclaimed money, demonstrating its tangible impact. The authority continues to call on the public to review records and claim what belongs to them, promoting financial inclusion and economic stimulation.
