Friday, July 25, 2025 - The Ethics and Anti-Corruption Commission (EACC) on 23rd July 2025 arrested Samuel Kariuki Ngaanga, the Bomet County Director of the National Environment Management Authority (NEMA), for allegedly soliciting and receiving a bribe of Kes25, 000.
The bribe was reportedly demanded to allow the complainant
to continue operating a lodging facility located in Mulot Township without the
required Effluent Discharge License and Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA).
The Commission on 22nd July 2025 received a
report of the bribery allegations, and upon preliminary investigations, an
operation was conducted that led to the arrest of the suspect within Bomet town
while receiving Kes25,000.00 from the complainant.
The suspect was escorted to Bomet Police Station for
interviewing, processing, and statement recording.
He was booked for the offences of soliciting and receiving a
bribe and later released on Kes30,000 cash bail, pending the outcome of the
ongoing inquiry.
The Commission reiterates its commitment to tackling bribery at service delivery points to restore public trust and improve access to quality services for all citizens.
