The Ethics and Anti-Corruption Commission (EACC) has denied viral social media reports claiming it was planning to raid the residence of Speaker of the National Assembly Moses Wetang’ula, confirming the information is false and baseless. This comes after President William Ruto announced the government would apprehend leaders soliciting bribes for legislative duties.

• EACC officials confirmed the reports of a raid were “fake.”
• The denial follows President William Ruto's strong condemnation of Members of Parliament involved in bribery.
• All National Assembly committee sittings were paralyzed on Tuesday in protest of Ruto’s claims.
• Speaker Wetang’ula is currently leading a two-day retreat in Mombasa with Members of Parliament.
