The Ethics and Anti-Corruption Commissioned questioned 52 public officers who were alleged to have benefited from the Kemsa scandal, Attorney General Paul Kihara has said. The AG said that the commission reached out to 52 persons of interest in the scandal who wrote statements. Kihara, who was making his remarks on Monday during the national Covid conference, said that the Director of Public Prosecutions has already received the report regarding the 52. He said the EACC applied a two-phase approach to the case, the first being questioning the public officers mentioned in the saga. President Uhuru Kenyatta had given the commission 21 days to expedite investigations into the alleged theft of funds at Kemsa.
