The Ethics and Anti-Corruption Commission (EACC) has expanded its investigation into graft in Busia County, now probing top officials of the Busia County Assembly Service Board for alleged abuse of office, procurement irregularities, and theft of public funds. This new inquiry focuses on a tender for an E-Parliament System awarded to Optic Technologies during the 2023/2024 financial year.

• EACC demands original documents by September 2, 2025.
• Key officials under investigation include Speaker Fredrick Wafula and Clerk Caroline Omukitet.
• This follows a recent raid and arrests of six County Executive Committee (CEC) members for unexplained wealth and conflict of interest involving tenders worth Ksh.1.4 billion. Separately, Busia Senator Okiya Omtatah has urged the EACC to investigate Ksh.5.2 billion unaccounted for in the county executive for the 2022/2023 financial year.
