Former Judiciary Registrar Anne Amadi has dismissed allegations linking her to a $742,206 (Sh102 million) gold scam, stating she resigned from the implicated law firm in 2014 and had no involvement in the matter.
Amadi, who is being interviewed for the Independent Electoral and Boundaries Commission (IEBC) chairperson position, described the claims as a smear campaign aimed at tarnishing her reputation. "There was actually no reason for me to be in that case.
I resigned from the firm in 2014 and was fully engaged in my duties in the Judiciary," said Amadi. "For me, it was a malicious attack, but when you are in public service, you must be ready for such challenges." Briton Demetrios Bradshaw and his company, Bruton Gold Trading LLC, filed a suit accusing Amadi of colluding with others through her former law firm, Amadi and Associates, to defraud them.
On May 17 2024, Justice David Majanja froze Amadi's accounts over the claims.
