So, a report was released the other day showing Kenya as the fourth most corrupt country in the world. Heck, this time, we've even beaten our perennial rivals, Nigeria, at it. And whereas some of us may have doubts about the credibility of the study, we nevertheless all are in agreement that this cancer called corruption has become too endemic in Kenya.

And so, it got me thinking, is it really that impossible to tackle corruption once-and-for-all in our society and country? I mean, some countries have managed to do it with stellar results. I have in mind Georgia that has managed to bring down corruption markedly by doing some simple yet revolutionary thing. Read more here:

Georgia.

Its not that hard just that those who are meant to tackle this vice from the top are deep in it...how many big names get prosecuted?They always find a way of evading prosecution...there is zero will power...


My thoughts exactly
Lord, thank you!

I love Kenya so much but on this one, we are a complete failure! I with the youngsters we'd see some immediate results on head rolling but it is business as usual! Nothing happening. the police FORCE is still taking bribes, my title deed is still doing rounds in Land's registry 2 years on, tenders are still given on who-knows-who basis....well, what can one say?


Hiyo ya polisi, wacha tu. I was watching that feature on BBC news yesterday. Do you know what they did? Having established that traffic police were amongst the most corrupt, they decided to come up with a new modus operandi (pardon my dholuo). They abolished the traffic department and instituted US-style road patrols. The former officers were not redeployed, no. They were sacked!! Now, talk of guts!smile smile

Oh yeah, that. But haven't we been independent (sovereign?) for 50yrs now? Looking for scapegoats won't work in this issue.

That is the trouble with seeing things through a certain filter (lifestyle).
One can only identify with your problems if they have walked a mile in your shoes.

Nobody in Kenya; Mpig, Judge, Teacher, lawyer, police etc etc is ever sacked when caught in the wrong. They are simply transferred.

Laptops for kids = corruption? Is that the reason why our position has "improved"? I can bet over 98% of us try to negotiate with police for ANY offense committed and unfortunately, they mostly succumb.
I care!
