Kenya has once again topped the list of the most corrupt countries in the region. Transparency international’s bribery index says Kenya has the most incidents of corruption at 45 percent followed by Uganda and Tanzania. The Kenya police at 66.5 per cent is rated the most corrupt in East Africa. The force remain at the top for the eighth year running although Tanzania and Uganda police also rank high at 62.5 and 58.3 per cent. In Kenya, 51 percent of respondents reported paying bribes to get services while 68 percent Ugandans and 55 percent of Tanzanians paid bribes to get services. Corruption will continue eating us unless we took a step and stopped bribing, we might whine forever but the solution rests on us, if every Kenyan chose not to bribe for services and use the right channels, even poverty could decline given that corruption has contributed to the deepening poverty and the cost of doing business in East Africa.
