Gov James Orengo Dares EACC to Arrest Him After EACC CEO’s Cryptic Warning
Gov James Orengo Dares EACC to Arrest Him After EACC CEO’s Cryptic Warning: The governor in a press release, accused the EACC Chief Executive Officer Twalib Mbarak of making reckless, irresponsible and unjustified sentiments aimed at intimidating him.
According to Governor Orengo, EACC’s comments on his potential corruption investigation were nothing new to him but a provocative move.
The governor went ahead to highlight that arrests have always been made in Siaya County for the past six years but no prosecutions went through.
Orengo stated,”Complaints in regard thereto have been made many a time. But apropos the Governor, we say bring it on without delay,”
This comes moments after EACC CEO Twalib Mbarak mentioned that a prominent governor, who also practised law, was under the commission’s investigation.
He stated,”Yesterday the noise they made one of the people there was a governor and his county is on our red flag so you can tell that lawyer-cum-governor we may end up in his place very soon,”
“We did not start investigating Wairia and Wataani yesterday or six months ago, we started it long ago even when he was the CS treasury we were still investigating him on issues when he was a governor,” Mbarak added.
