The High Court has ordered the Central Bank of Kenya to unfreeze Nairobi County bank accounts, allowing the resumption of financial operations. This decision comes after former Finance Executive Charles Kerich disappeared following the issuance of arrest warrants.

• The court ruled that Nairobi County could proceed with its appointed Finance and Economic Planning CEC Member, Ibrahim Auma Nyangoya, without requiring the physical attendance of the outgoing official.
• The impasse arose because the Central Bank of Kenya required both outgoing and incoming finance executives to appear physically to verify account balances for signatory changes.
• The court cited the unavailability of Charles Kerich due to arrest warrants as the reason compliance with the CBK's requirement became impossible, thus disrupting essential county financial administration.
