Former Nacada chairman John Mututho instigated the removal and prosecution of the anti-drugs agency CEO William Okedi. A court heard on Wednesday that it was the former Naivasha MP who ordered EACC to probe Okedi for wrongdoing at the agency. Okedi's representative Charles Agwara told the Anti-Corruption Court that the investigations and subsequent prosecution were in bad faith. "Upon appointment of Mututho to Nacada, he wrote letters to th DCI and EACC seeking the prosecution of the CEO," Agwara said in court. Okedi moved to the High court to stop his prosecution at a magistrates court.
