The MCAs led by the assembly Majority leader Mallan Ogega had earlier in the day interrupted assembly proceedings citing massive corruption at the executive offices. After the melee at the assembly they marched to the education offices where they went about pursuing the senior officers with junior officers forced to run for their dear lives. The education officers who were in offices at that time found themselves in a tough situation trying to explain where the bursaries for the financial year 207/2018 and 2018/2019 were. Some of the MCAs who suspected mischief in the way the matter was being handled broke open office cabinets looking for files and cheques. The MCAs later took off with heaps of files to the assembly premises where they swore to table a motion to impeach the County Executive Committee member in charge of education who was not in office during the chaos. The MCAs claimed that there has been favouritism and discrimination County Public Administrator Mr. Domnic Akugo however dismissed the claims of favouritism saying there was delay in the release of funds from the national government.
