In a significant crackdown on corruption, the Ethics and Anti-Corruption Commission (EACC) arrested Japheth Ouko Mayore Isaboke, Principal Prosecution Counsel at the Office of the Director of Public Prosecutions (ODPP) in Kilgoris. The prosecutor allegedly solicited a Ksh50,000 bribe from a local businessman to expedite a court case. During negotiations, he reportedly reduced the amount to Ksh40,000. The complainant, refusing to pay, reported the incident to the EACC. Acting swiftly, officers moved in on Sunday, February 16, 2025, arresting Isaboke red-handed as he received Ksh20,000, part of the agreed bribe.
