Kenyan Anti-Corruption Agency Arrests Ex-governor

Kenyan police have arrested an ex-governor and his wife over alleged procurement irregularities, local media reports say.

Wycliffe Oparanya is currently at the Ethics and Anti-Corruption Commission alongside his wife Priscilla, his political party ODM tweeted.

No reason had been given for their arrest or why they were being questioned, it added.

Mr Oparanya served two terms as the governor of Kakamega County in western Kenya between 2013 and 2022.
