Nyandarua Governor Kimemia Raided: Detectives from the Ethics and Anti Corruption Commission on Thursday morning conducted a raid at the offices of the Nyandarua Governor Francis Kimemia.

Reports further say that the head of finance at the county Mary Mugwanja’s home was also raided in a move that saw further collection of evidence. “They took some documents from the governor’s secretary and the finance office to help us crack the case that emanated from the tender issued in 2019,” Rasugu said.
He added that the probe was also about a county investment forum function that never was despite the money being spent. The area Governor has been in a sustained war with both of them accusing each other of embezzling funds in the county. Nyandarua Governor Kimemia Raided.
