MPs United Against PAC

When Midiwo and Duale are united, Wanjiku is doubly screwed.  It has to be when two people with no moral authority to speak on corruption come together.  Midiwo and Duale as the "voices against corruption" is a national disaster.

Is there an integrity committee in parliament or its free for all?

[Omollo]

The argument by MPs is that everybody is eating and eating using the powers and position they have been given. Civil servants under Uhuru have never had it so nice. So the MPs are maximizing their opportunities.

Chapter Six is dead everywhere. Besides one needs a robust institution to enforce ethics and standards. EACC has failed and it is a joke to expect thieves to police fellow thieves.

What may eventually work is to multiply investigative bodies with cross cutting jurisdictions. The US, UK etc have multiple bodies who in fact end up spying on each other and competing for attention.

However between me and you it is the mwananchi. The day he stops glorifying thieves and instead shames them is the day this thing will slow down.

Omollo,

I am convinced even declaring corruption a capital offense won't change the Kenyan politician or power broker.  It will just raise the stakes.  Shifting more power to eat to the judges.  In Kenya is a cultural problem.

One option might be to consider outsourcing the handling of corruption cases to external entities.  Some foreign country.
