EACC sleuths raided the residence and the office of the Laikipia County Assembly Speaker Lantano Nabaala following claims of forged academic forgery documents.

Early in the morning, the EACC officers backed by the armed policemen moved in the  Speaker’s residences Muthaiga estate in Nairobi and Nanyuki, before proceeding to the county assembly headquarters in Nanyuki. 

In the operation the sleuths ransacked through the documents in search of the vital details connected to the forged education certificates.

According to EACC Central Region boss Japheth Baithalu, the raids were conducted to gather evidence and verify claims that the Speaker may have forged his academic qualifications.

Nabaala has been on the radar of the investigative agency for over a year, over allegations of acquiring his job using fake papers. 

The action accelerated after a section of MCAs wrote to the EACC notifying of the issues that required in-depth investigation after a motion to impeach the speaker failed to materialize.

 Thereafter the sleuths sought to be furnished with the documents from the county assembly in connection with matters under investigations.
