PHOTO CAPTION: Billionaire James Kamwere's Son “Gato Gitonga” A contractor employed by the second wife of billionaire Mr James Kamwere Muriuki has uncovered the thieving ways of the couple's son, Gato Gitonga Kamwere, who has allegedly been milking hundreds of thousands from his mother's construction sites.
In a leaked audio conversation between the informant and Mrs Kamwere, her son is accused of doubling orders for building materials and pocketing half of the cash.
Workers also claim he often shows up to work when drunk and disorderly.
This is the same Gato Gitonga, whose estranged wife exposed him for running away from home to put up with a known old woman by the name of Fatma Wandia. "He realised I couldn’t mother him anymore as my source of money ran dry. He was born with a silver spoon and thus his parent spoilt their brats meaning to date. All his four siblings still rely on them for maintenance and upkeep. His mother is a multi-millionaire on her own right and is the second wife to the tycoon. " she said at the time.

The guy calling is the mason. They came together with the caretaker to tell on the “Gitonga” guy. The caretaker felt he was going to get caught and the guy will flip on him and end up losing his job yet he’s been working with the family for over 10 years. The guy is an alcoholic and even as you can hear; he goes to the site while drunk. He stole from his mum’s coffee shops in town and got fired, so it's not news to herons that get upgraded to big money. Kwa site kuna pesa. He doubles the orders. His best friends are kina Muhoho and Joe Nyaga's sons. He would hate for anyone to find out, but the clip is already in our girls’ WhatsApp group,” the source writes.
