Arrest and charge officials who sneer at asset declaration laws

Corruption thrives in Kenya because public servants don’t disclose – at the pain of perjury – all their assets. The law that requires the declaration of assets is fatally flawed. 

The Public Ethics Officers Act (POEA) is a toothless, useless piece of legislation. So is the Ethics and Anti-Corruption Commission Act, the Anti-Corruption and Anti-Corruption Crimes Act, the Bribery Act, and the Leadership and Integrity Act.
