Anti-corruption officials raided the home of Kiambu Governor Paul Njoroge Kimani, known as Wamatangi. They also searched properties belonging to eight other county officials as part of an ongoing investigation. Wamatangi later posted on X, asking residents to stay peaceful during this time. He mentioned he was at the EACC Headquarters and would speak to the media soon.

People gathered outside the governor's residence after the raid. They carried leaves and sang, demanding authorities release Wamatangi. The Ethics and Anti-Corruption Commission said they were looking into financial wrongdoing within the Kiambu County government. Their investigation focuses on alleged conflict of interest and procurement problems in a contract worth Sh230 million for an Enterprise Resource Planning System.

Officials recovered important evidence during their operation. They found Sh12 million and USD 13,000 cash at Wamatangi's home. The EACC plans to use investigation findings to determine the next steps. These might include prosecuting anyone found guilty, taking unexplained assets, and seizing money linked to corruption.
