Members of Parliament allied to ODM are demanding the arrest and prosecution of individuals involved in the formation of ghost schools that were used to siphon public funds.

The MPs including Shinyalu MP Justus Kizito, Mathare North's Anthony Oluoch and Kwale County Woman Representative Zuleikha Hassan called on the Directorate of Criminal Investigations (DCI) and the Ethics and Anti-Corruption Commission (EACC) to investigate and arrest the suspects involved in the acts.
