Ethics and Anti-Corruption Commission, DPP Tobiko lock horns over corruption files

DPP Keriako Tobiko

Investigating agencies were locked in a row yesterday, with only six days to the 60-day ultimatum by President Uhuru Kenyatta for conclusion of probes against top officials implicated in corruption.

EACC is investigating 175 cases that were listed in the report presented to Parliament in March. At the time, President Kenyatta directed officials named in a list of shame to step aside, and demanded that the investigating authority ensures that Director of Public Prosecutions (DPP) Keriako Tobiko receives the subject files without delay.
