Ethics and Anti-corruption Commission (EACC) boss Twalib Mbarak has been sued for failure to obey court orders.
He was required him to reinstate Henry Morara Ongwinyi to his position as Education Officer 1 as ordered by the Labour Court.
In an application filed in court, Morara wants orders compelling Mbarak to comply with orders issued by lady Justice Hellen Wasilwa of the Employment and Labour Relations Court to reinstate him to his position as Education Officer I with immediate effect.
In her decision, Wasilwa ordered EACC to reinstate Morara after finding that his dismissal was unfair and in contravention with the rule of Law.
The judge had given the commission 14 days to comply with the orders, by reinstating him to his position which he held in 2014 when the commission terminated his employment.
Further, the petitioner argues that since August 20, 2015, when Justice Wasilwa made the orders, the EACC has totally ignored the orders and the only avenue available is to compel them or punish the top officials.
The lawyer now wants the court to issue an order compelling the Anti-corruption commission to pay his client in full the arrears of Ksh 6,768,389 without further delay.
Morara has sued the EACC, its former Chairman Mumo Matemu, and former deputy commissioners Irene Keino and Jane Onsongo.
Also in the suit are the Chief Executive Twalib and Michael Mubea, the Chief Executive Officer Operations at the Ethics and Anti-Corruption Commission, Directorate of Criminal Investigations and the Attorney General.
