The Ethics and Anti-Corruption Commission (EACC) has conducted a search operation at the residence of Patrick Analo Akivaga, the Chief Officer for Urban Development and Planning at the Nairobi City County Government.
Search Operation Conducted in Syokimau, Machakos County
The operation, carried out on Thursday, 4th June 2026, targeted Analo’s residence in Syokimau, Machakos County. According to EACC, the search was conducted in connection with allegations of conflict of interest, abuse of office, bribery, and possession of unexplained assets.
EACC alleges that Analo has been receiving substantial amounts of money through cash transactions and M-Pesa transfers, amounting to millions of shillings.
Investigators further suspect that he has accumulated significant assets that are not proportional to his known legitimate sources of income, prompting the probe into his financial dealings and lifestyle.
Cash Recovery of KSh 65.3 Million
During the operation, EACC says it recovered key evidentiary material believed to be critical to the ongoing investigation. These include KES 51,300,000 and 113,000 US dollars, equivalent to approximately KSh 14,000,000, bringing the total cash recovered to KSh 65,300,000.
In addition to the cash, investigators also seized several items considered important for the case. These include multiple title deeds, motor vehicle log books, laptops, land and motor vehicle sale agreements, and approval plans linked to the Nairobi City County Government.
Authorities also recovered mobile phones, iPads, electronic devices, and other documentary materials that may support the investigation.
Upon conclusion of the investigations, EACC stated that the findings will inform the next course of action, which may include prosecution and recovery proceedings aimed at forfeiting unexplained assets and proceeds of corruption.
