The Ethics and Anti-Corruption Commission (EACC) has asked various banks where Kiambu Governor Ferdinand Waititu holds accounts to provide details about his transactions.
NTV reported that the agency is interested in 50 bank accounts that are associated with Waititu, his family members, and proxies.
EACC has requested the financial institutions to provide balance sheets that indicate the transactions that have been carried out since the accounts were opened.
Investigators believe that public funds could have been deposited into the accounts with the full knowledge of Waititu.
The county boss will appear before the agency on Tuesday, May 28 to shed more light into the irregular award of tenders in Kiambu.
EACC detectives, on Thursday, arrested Waititu after conducting coordinated raids on his homes.
After the raid on his Runda residence, the county head was bundled into the EACC van and taken to Integrity Centre for questioning.
The detectives took away records relating to contracts issued by the governor as well as some number plates found in the boot of his Toyota Prado.
Earlier in the morning, the sleuths had stormed two of his Nairobi homes in a 6-hour operation to gather evidence.
The detectives searched his homes in Runda and Garden Estate for documents in connection to corruption in Kiambu County Government.
