All the 47 governors and their spouses have until end of the month to declare their income, assets and liabilities for a lifestyle audit, the Ethics and Anti-Corruption Commission (EACC) has declared.

EACC Chairman, Eliud Wabukala, said senior officers employed by the county public service boards will also be subjected to the audit as the new measure to fight corruption.
