A Nairobi court has frozen 45 bank accounts and 10 mobile money wallets belonging to a Nigerian-owned financial technology firm battling multiple money laundering allegations, as individuals and companies begin to queue up for billions the firm has stashed away in local banks.

High Court judge Alfred Mabeya last week issued orders freezing the accounts of Flutterwave Payments Technology after a group of 2,468 Nigerian nationals claimed the firm was used to defraud them of $12.04 million (Sh1.6 billion).
