Turkana Governor Jeremiah Lomorukai now faces arrest after the High Court dismissed his bid to stop his prosecution over claims that he forged his academic papers.

Justice Reuben Nyakundi rejected the Governor ’s application for anticipatory bail pending the hearing and determination of the suit where he is challenging the decision by the Ethics and Anti-Corruption Commission (EACC) to arrest him over allegations of holding a fake degree.

“The petitioner (Lomorukai) had failed to demonstrate that the EACC and the DPP, Inspector General of Police have breached his fundamental rights to freedom or that there exists any threat of his rights to warrant the grant of anticipatory bail. The petition has no merit and accordingly dismissed it,” Justice Nyakundi ordered.

According to the anti-graft agency, it was established that both the Governor’s degree and diploma certificates were fake, thus rendering him liable to criminal prosecution.

EACC says the Governor forged a degree and diploma certificates purported to have been issued by the Kenya Methodist University.

The Governor is said to have used the alleged forged papers to seek clearance to contest the governor’s seat.
