There was drama at City Hall Nairobi on the afternoon of Monday, November 1, after Directorate of Criminal Investigations (DCI) sleuths raided the executive wing to arrest county acting secretary Jairus Musumba over alleged corruption.
The detectives who were drawn from Central Police Station arrived at City Hall around 1 pm with orders to arrest Dr Musumba, only for him to escape by jumping through the window and vanishing into thin air.
The suspect switched off his phone thereafter, but Central Police OCPD Adamson Bungei said that the cops are on his radar even if he hides.

Bungei also urged the county official to present himself to the police station before they go after him.
Several staff members from City Hall have been on the radars of the Ethics and Anti-Corruption Commission (EACC) as well as DCI over rampant malpractices that have bedevilled operations at the county headquarters.
In one of the most recent cases of corruption at City Hall, the court allowed EACC to present a dead man’s evidence in a KSh 283m cemetery land scandal.
The purchase of the piece of land on the outskirts of the capital, Nairobi, was meant to replace the Lang’ata Cemetery, which is almost full.
It was alleged that the 120-acre land in Mavoko was purchased for KSh 283 million when it instead cost KSh 24 million and did not have a title deed.
