Kiambu Governor Kimani Wamatangi has sued the Ethics and Anti-Corruption Commission (EACC), citing abuse of its investigation powers.
Wamatangi, in his case filed before the High Court on Tuesday, stated that although the EACC had obtained orders to investigate a tender for the supply, delivery, and installation of the Enterprise Resource Planning System (ERP) to Filtronic International Limited, it ended up arresting him, which was outside the court's orders.
The governor claimed that he has been a victim of harassment and victimisation by EACC for the past year.
He further argued that this was a guise of conducting investigations into corruption allegations.
