Officers from the Ethics and Anti-Corruption Commission (EACC) on the morning of Wednesday, April 24, 2024, raided the home of former Treasury Cabinet Secretary Ukur Yatani in Marsabit.

The former Treasury CS is wanted in connection with a suspected graft case and is currently being held at the EACC Integrity Center Police Station, pending arraignment.
