How CBK boss has ushered in a regime change since taking the reins

The puzzle about Patrick Njoroge, the Central Bank of Kenya (CBK) governor, began on the day he sat with MPs and revealed that at nearly 53 years old, he was unmarried and owns virtually nothing in Kenya despite a “fat” Sh3 million monthly salary.

Even in their consideration of the amount as an annual pay, the MPs still wondered why the man owned “nothing” at his age, and appeared to favour holding hard currency in banks. But he stressed that his finances were not necessarily going to remain stagnant.
