Marsabit Senator Mohammed Chute has been arrested and is currently detained at the EACC Integrity Centre. The news of his arrest has been widely reported by reputable sources online.
Reports indicate that the arrest is connected to allegations of conflict of interest and involvement in multimillion-dollar corruption within the Marsabit County Government. This arrest is part of a wider crackdown on corruption in public office.
His arrest follows closely after President William Ruto's recent promise to Gen Z during X Space that he would take firm action against public servants misusing public resources.
In a stern warning, President Ruto emphasized that his administration would leave no stone unturned in the fight against corruption, highlighting the need for accountability and transparency in governance.
As news of the senator's arrest spreads, Kenyans are anticipating President Ruto's upcoming speech, where he is expected to outline forthcoming changes in his government.
Speculations abound that Ruto plans to reshuffle his Cabinet, with rumors circulating that several Cabinet Secretaries may be dismissed. Rumors also suggest the possibility of forming a unity government that includes leaders from Azimio. However, the exact details of the president's announcement remain to be seen.
