The NTV Kenya documentary under #BankingOnCourage
traces Mwatela's 32-year career from 1977 to 2008, where she rose to deputy
governor and clashed over scandals like Goldenberg export claims, Charterhouse
Bank's money laundering, Grand Regency Hotel collateral, and a costly currency
tender.
She refused irregular approvals, faced
resistance from figures like Finance Minister Amos Kimunya and Kamlesh Pattni,
and even declined a transfer to protect her pension.
