On October 19, 2016, when corruption cases were at an all-time high during President Uhuru Kenyatta’s first term in office, he threw his hands in the air and asked the public what more they wanted him to do.
A clearly frustrated president told a gathering that included Cabinet Secretaries, the Chief Justice, the Inspector General of Police and the Ethics and Anti-Corruption Commission (EACC) that he had sacrificed a lot in the war against corruption but nothing was bearing fruit.
