Court Reinstates Oparanya Graft Case; Governor Otuoma Grilled Over Fund Misuse - September 2025

The High Court in Nairobi quashed a decision to withdraw a Ksh57 million graft case against Cooperatives Cabinet Secretary Wycliffe Oparanya. Following the ruling, the National Integrity Alliance is demanding Oparanya's immediate arrest. In a separate matter of public accountability, Busia Governor Paul Otuoma was grilled by the Senate County Public Accounts and Special Funds Committee. The interrogation was over allegations of widespread misuse of county funds. These allegations were detailed in the Auditor General’s FY 2023/2024 Report.
