The Ethics and Anti-Corruption Commission has opposed an application by Samburu Governor Moses Lenolkulal seeking to set aside court orders freezing his bank accounts. Lenolkulal wants the court to lift the orders for him to access his salary. The EACC argued that the application is defective, lacks merit and the court should dismiss it. The EACC further argues that Lenolkulal has not demonstrated to the court that the money was not acquired as a result of corrupt conduct. According to EACC, Lenolkulal has only attached payslips in support of his application which do not add any weight to the application as the existence of a salary is not an issue in dispute.
