The Standard Group Plc is a
multi-media organization with investments in media platforms spanning newspaper
print operations, television, radio broadcasting, digital and online services. The
Standard Group is recognized as a leading multi-media house in Kenya with a key

Reports that some officers from the Ethics and Anti-Corruption Commission (EACC) in Nakuru County stormed Bahati Police Station and released a woman held at the station as a suspect raises pertinent questions on the role of the anti-corruption body and the bounds within which it should carry out its mandate.

This fight must be carried out in a structured manner that precludes acting out of malice and on unverified information supplied by people who might be pushing their personal agenda.
