A team of EACC officers are currently locked in a search mission at the offices of Roads and Public Works in Nyamira.
The team arrived some minutes past noon, subsequently, raided offices of the minister, director and Chief officer.
For weeks now, a section of youths have been writing emails and messages to Kisii Regional Offices calling for prosecution of Mr. John Omanwa, the County Executive Committee members incharge of the department.
Initially, a group of contractors led by James Momanyi had threatened to lead demonstrations against the department over the ongoing construction of a prefab that will host all departments in the county.
"We shall ensure the minister resigns. He's the reason behind overpriced contracts including this one," he said.
But in a rejoinder, Mr. Omanwa insisted that procurement was done in line with the law, adding that those raising questions were malicious.
"We have two buildings that costs such amount. The second one is yet to start and I am not aware why they are complaining. EACC has been here before but obtained nothing."
Understandably, Mr. Omanwa is currently away in Mombasa where he's attending a bonding section organised by the executive and the assembly.
Until going to the press, the officers were still locked in the oftices and would be seen perusing files.
