The incumbent Nairobi Governor Evans Kidero has moved to court seeking orders stopping the Capital Market Authority (CMA) from investigating his personal bank accounts during his tenure at Mumias Sugar Company.
In the application, Kidero claims that the respondents have violated the capital market Act and constitution in investigations of his personal bank accounts.
Kidero alleges that the investigations by CMA and DPP constitutes nothing but intimidation, political harassment using government agencies to humiliate and degrade him in the eyes of general public as the move is likely to depolarize him in the eyes of his voters.
He further he contends that there’s an order in another case stopping the investigations of his personal bank accounts which the respondents are parties to.
He claims that the respondents have violated the capital market Act and constitution in investigations of his personal bank accounts.
In a certificate of urgency the governor argues that unless the court stays the illegal investigations, he is going to suffer a violation of his constitutional rights.
