Senator Okiya Omtatah’s office raided by unknown people amid his critics to the government.
The office of Busia Senator Okiya Omtatah was raided by unknown people on the night of Friday, July 21.
The senator revealed that the unknown individuals ransacked the office and got away with electronics.
He confirmed that despite reporting the matter to the police, there were no leads as to who stole his valuables.
“I reported the incident on Saturday, July 22, but yet nothing has been done,” a distraught Omtatah remarked noting it was his Busia office that was targetted.
Omtatah has been leading in various litigations touching on human rights and other abuses including the latest one on the Finance Act, 2023.
Omtatah remarked that he was not sure whether his office was broken into due to being a vocal critic of the Kenya Kwanza government.
He did not however, specify the contents that were in the computers that were stolen and whether they had details on his active cases in court.

Omtatah had earlier revealed to have received offers of up to Sh200 million to withdraw his petition against the Finance Act 2023.
During his speech at the People’s Anti-corruption Summit on Tuesday, Omtatah said he turned down the offers as it is an attempt to undermine the justice system.
“We have to ensure that we abide by the law. They believe everyone has a price. Right now if you look at the money I have been offered to withdraw the petition (it) has reached 200 million. But I tell them, my price is one, if you can’t govern, vacate the office for those who can govern,” said Omtatah.
He vowed not to succumb to any attempts to compromise the integrity of the legal process, emphasizing that his petition was driven by a genuine concern for the welfare of the public and the economy.
