Time for Kenya to walk the talk on graft

US Ambassador to Kenya Robert Godec

Kenyans have talked about corruption for years. Kenyans know it is undermining the country’s prosperity, security, development and even democracy.

In a recent Pew Research Centre survey, 91 per cent of Kenyans called Government corruption a “very big problem”.  What’s needed now, however, is not talk, but serious, sustained action. The United States stands with Kenya in the fight against corruption, but the scourge will continue unless Kenyans themselves put a stop to it.
