Detectives drawn from the Ethics and Anti-Corruption Commission (EACC) on Thursday arrested two Nairobi County officials while receiving bribes in Spring Valley.

In a video shared by the Nairobi Governor Mike Sonko, the duo and two other accomplices were arrested after being handed a Sh60,000 bribe.

Governor Sonko revealed that the officials had demanded for a Sh 100,000 bribe “in order to offer free county services and issue fake Single Business Permit licence to the public.”

Governor Sonko said more county officials will be arrested in connection with bribe taking.

He said the beneficiaries of bribes at City Hall include senior cashiers, accountants and auditors.
