EACC CEO Twalib Mbarak says the commission has received a go-ahead from the Director of Public Prosecution to arrest and charge senator Mandago over the Finland scholarship saga.
According to EACC, Mandago was introduced to overseas education opportunities by Cornelius Kiplagat, director Max Global, in 2019. Kiplagat also introduced him to Tampere University officials.
After deliberations, the two teams (the team comprising of former Governor of Uasin Gishu and other County Officials as well as the officials of Tampere University of Applied Sciences) signed a memorandum of understanding to work together to foster cooperation in education and cultural activities.
Subsequently, Chief Officer for Youth Affairs Gender and Sports formed a secretariat to facilitate the registration of the trust to run the overseas education programme.
“Evidence further established that bank accounts for Uasin Gishu County Overseas education were opened. Account opening forms as well as signatures of the account signatories were forgeries,” said EACC.
