Uhuru must relentlessly pursue anti-corruption crusade

There is no question. Villains have been fraudulently and mercilessly milking taxpayers by engaging in corruption. The excitement Kenyans experience when they hear that action is finally being taken against those who have put self before country is understandable. The President’s action to put the corrupt on notice is therefore most welcome. It is important to note that the euphoria expressed by Kenyans is akin to the joy of beginning the journey to a promised land.

It is an expectant emotion that looks forward to arriving at a certain destination. We have in the past seen the anti-corruption engine being revved amid great fanfare only for the engine to idle uselessly for years before finally stalling and switching off.
