Johnson Nduya Muthama is among the richest politicians in the country and the most influential man in Ukambani.
Muthama dropped at standard seven after finding it difficult to cope with school life. He immediately started business. His first venture was getting involved in Mining business, thanks to his able uncle, Francis Kalinzoya, who took him to Tsavo to try his luck.
Muthama would later form a company, naming it Muthama Gemstones. The Machakos Senator used the company to advance his interests.
Sources say Muthama owns a home in Karen estimated at Ksh150 million. He has interests in mining, real estate, hotel and transport. He has also invested heavily in Nairobi Securities Exchange.
The Senator was at one time exposed after it was discovered he has secret account in SWISS bank.
He separated with his wife Agnes Kavindu two years ago.
