Kisii Senator Richard Onyonka has alleged the government's intention to arrest the Orange Democratic Movement (ODM) party Secretary General Edwin Sifuna over bribery allegations.

Speaking on Monday, August 18, during a stakeholder forum in Meru County, Onyonka alleged a well-orchestrated scheme to arrest the Nairobi Senator and other parliamentarians for allegedly receiving bribes.

The Kisii lawmaker revealed that he had received information that President William Ruto had ordered the arrest of Sifuna and other members of the legislature.

Onyonka also criticised the Head of State for failing to tackle corruption within the executive before accusing the legislature of the same.
