This follows increasing scrutiny of Garissa County over corruption issues and
comes in light of recent Senate proceedings revealing extensive financial
malpractice within the county.
In an early morning raid in South C, Nairobi, the Ethics and Anti-Corruption
Commission (EACC) confiscated Ksh 37 million from the home of Asha Daud Korow,
a relative and close associate of Governor Jama.
Asha Korow plays a key role in Garissa County’s financial malpractice. Her
brother, Mohamed Daud Korow, the Chief Finance Officer, is identified as the
architect behind the fraudulent payments.
According to an EACC official who gave the details, the operation in South C,
Nairobi, is part of a broader investigation into systemic corruption within
Garissa County.
Asha Daud Korow’s connection to the Governor and her pivotal role in facilitating illicit financial activities reveal the widespread nature of the malpractice.
Her brother, Mohamed Daud Korow, allegedly orchestrated fraudulent
transactions that have come under intense scrutiny.
The ongoing investigation seeks to uncover the full extent of the financial
misconduct and hold all responsible parties accountable, the EACC official
added. Further developments are expected as the EACC continues its efforts to
address corruption within the county.
