The Ethics and Anti-Corruption Commission (EACC) is investigating an alleged misuse of public funds amounting to Ksh.5 million, reportedly spent on a lavish housewarming party at the residence of the Vihiga County Assembly Speaker.
In a letter addressed to the Clerk of the Vihiga County Assembly, dated February 12, 2026, the EACC requested the urgent submission of documents and information to facilitate the probe.
The commission asked for original or certified copies of requisitions from the user department, approved budgets for the financial year 2023/2024 or any other relevant period, procurement documents, payment records, and any other relevant materials related to the event.
“Please endeavour to provide the documents by 13th February, 2026. Our officers Brian Shigoli and Kevin Lagat, or any other authorised EACC officer, will be available to receive the requested documents and information,” EACC Regional Manager for Central Nyanza Abraham Kemboi stated in the letter.
