Kenyans on social media especially on Twitter and Facebook have criticized the (EACC) Ethics and Anti-Corruption Commission for the summons issued to a deceased (MCA) for Central Sakwa ward in Siaya county to a record statements. He is to ‘appear’ at their Kisumu offices on August 19, 2019.

The late MCA Andiego who was also the chief whip at the County Assembly died while serving his second term after being re-elected on an (ODM) party ticket. He was replaced by his son Charlton Andiego who won the seat after a by-election in 2018.

In a letter dated July 31, 2019, EACC Western Regional Manager Ignatius Wekesa asked the assembly to facilitate all the 41 MCAs to their offices in Kisumu to record statements.

In the letter, the late Andiego is to appear on the same day with MCAs Leonard Oriaro (Central Alego), Francis Otiato (Yimbo East) and Obiero Otare (Siaya Township).
