President Uhuru Kenyatta has made a national call to tackle endemic corruption. The President while outlining the measures his government will take in fighting corruption also declared that corruption is a "standing threat to our national security."
Among the measures he outlined in a strongly worded statement include making it compulsory for every company seeking to work with government both at the national and county level, to sign an approved Business Code of Ethics domiciled in the Public Procurement Oversight Authority.
Other measures include those that focus primarily on ethics in public office and the observance of the rle of law. "I am also determined to bring back the spirit of Selfless Service. Senior officials must exhibit the highest standard of ethical behavior and lead by example as is required of them under Chapter 6 of the Constitution" he said this as he reminded all those in government that these measures will be enforced by the inspector general of police in conjunction with other law enforcement organs.
