Breaking: Hunter Hunted Down As President Uhuru Kenyatta Shows EACC Chairman The Door

It is a case of the hunter becoming hunted as EACC chairperson Mumo Matemu and his vice Irene Keino were suspended early today by President Uhuru Kenyatta.

In a twitter post by State House spokesperson Manoah Esipisu, the president has suspended the two pending investigations into corruption allegations leveled against them.

It is ironical that Mumo Matemu has been grilling prominent persons implicated in a corruption syndicate in a list tabled in parliament by President Uhuru Kenyatta late last month.

It is now his turn to face the axe as parliament continued to discuss his dismissal as the Commission’s chair.

Matemu has been embroiled in controversy this year especially when it emerged that his two assistants Prof. Jane Onsongo and Irene Keino had written to the president urging him to suspend him only to rescind their decisions.

Here is what Esipisu tweeted:
