Kenya turning a new page in war on graft

I felt greatly mortified reading an opinion piece that recently appeared in the New York Times. “Kenya’s Gold Medal for Corruption”, read the article’s headline.

In one of the world’s most authoritative newspapers, our athletes’ world-beating heroics in the Rio Olympics no longer counted; the corruption and management crisis that rocked our team was the talking point. The author further bruised egos by detailing how pervasive corruption is in Kenya, and how inert the Government appears in fighting the vice.
