James Nyaoga, Kisii County Assembly Clerk, is expected to report to the Ethics and Anti-Corruption Commission (EACC) South Nyanza Regional offices in Kisii for questioning regarding controversial trips to India and Uganda.
According to the South Nyanza EACC Regional Manager, Enoch Otiko, the clerk has been summoned to appear at their offices on Monday at 9 a.m. for questioning regarding payment for the two trips.
“The clerk has an allegation that is touching on him and as a matter of procedure, whenever there is an allegation touching on an individual, we always give such a person a chance to also explain himself,” said Otiko.
The Regional Manager stated that they had received reports that the clerk had received multiple compensations for travel to the two countries in 2019.
The clerk is accused of stealing Sh. 500,000 during the two foreign trips and is required to produce the travel documents used during the trips.
Despite the fact that the clerk had not arrived by 11 a.m., Otiko stated that they are still expecting him and will use other means to ensure he appears before EACC and answers the allegations leveled against him.
