Published on August 16, 2019, a report revealed that Annah Mutheu, a renowned witch doctor from Machakos County, has broken records as Kenya's richest witch doctor with an estimated worth of millions of shillings.
Based in Machakos, Annah attributes her success to her 'juju' which she claims has brought her immense wealth and fame. She has invested in various lucrative businesses, including a fleet of PSV vehicles and a petrol station, creating employment opportunities for the local community.
Contrary to the common misconception that witch doctors live in caves and matope houses, Annah has built a luxurious home worth 40 million shillings, where clients come to seek her services. She claims to be a firm believer in Jesus Christ and combines her faith with her witching abilities to heal her clients.
Annah's journey to becoming a millionaire witch doctor began when she dropped out of school in class 8 to focus on her 'God-given talent'. Her parents, who identified her inborn witching ability, passed on their witching tools to her, giving her their blessings.
Annah's business is thriving, with 60 clients visiting her daily, each paying 1,000 shillings for consultation. This translates to 1.8 million shillings in untaxed cash per month, a testament to the success of her 'juju' business.
