Bungoma County Woman Representative Catherine Wambilianga was grilled by the Ethics and Anti-Corruption Commission (EACC) on Wednesday over her alleged involvement in corruption.

The MP appeared before the commission following a summons in an ongoing investigation into allegations of conflict of interest and money laundering in which she is a person of interest. 

According to EACC, the alleged offences relate to tender awards by Bungoma County’s National Government Affirmative Action Fund (NGAAF) to two private companies, Pinamba Investment Limited and Elchic General Works Limited, during the financial years 2022/2023 and 2023/2024.

EACC says upon conclusion of the investigations, the outcome will inform appropriate action, including criminal prosecution and the recovery of any public funds found to have been acquired unlawfully.
