The day the current Kenyan speaker is sentenced to prison is the day Kenya will be free. Current mpigs are the most corrupt EVER!!! And we all pay for it thru higher taxes, poor services, etc.

You are right Paperken -- equality under the law is the mark of civilization. The west seems to take very seriously any financial impropriety in leadership. If Bill Clinton had embezzled any funds he would not have survived. Anything is forgivable but greed.

The Chinese have embraced it. Kenya is eons from this milestone.

White people keep two books. One off record, one on record. When off record gets exposed by someone in his/her inner circle that's when they get caught.

In most cases these things are settled by cooperating with the taxman and denying no knowledge of such things happening. Transfer funds to a charity for safekeeping, offshore account etc. ensuring safe passage for the company accountant and family to Mexico until the storm passes.

Kenya doesn't have sufficient regulatory bodies, systems, checks and balances, paper trail to catch let alone persecute embezzled funds especially when the GoK is THE poster child for embezzled funds. Rome wasn't built in a day and neither is that one tribe-stealing slur since Kenya's Independence.

 After 50yrs you should start somewhere or be somewhere. Kenya is nowhere.
