President Uhuru Kenyatta has said he is to set up a website where he will directly receive corruption complaints from Kenyans. If Uhuru was serious in what he said then Kenyans will only trust him if he can take action from complains he is already having at hand.

Uhuru is first to deal with Anglo leasing list of shame released in Parliament on September 20, 2006 by then minister for Justice and Constitutional Affairs Ms Martha Karua.

The list of names and the type of contracts covered the period between 1997 and 2002 when Kanu was in power and 2003 to 2004 when Narc was in charge. Former Vice-President and Minister for Home Affairs Moddy Awori and Minister for Roads Simeon Nyachae were among the prominent politicians that were in the list.

The former ministers in the Kanu government are Musila Mudavadi, William Ruto, Chris Okemo, Julius Sunkuli, Chris Obure and William ole Ntimama. Those in the Narc government are David Mwiraria and Dr. Chris Murungaru.

The permanent secretaries mentioned in relation to Anglo Leasing corruption contracts are Sylvester Mwaliko, sammy Kyungu, David Mwangi, Joseph Magari, Ali Korane, Margaret Chmengich, Zakayo Cheruiyot, Mwaghazi Mwachofi, Simeon Lesirma, Moses Obudo and S. K. Bondotich (financial secretary).

Uhuru is also to deal with people implicated on the financial statements of most ministries and departments were found to be incomplete, totally missing or not up to date. More than Sh297 billion of the Sh900 billion Budget expenditure was either irregularly spent or lost according to the Auditor General’s report.

In last year’s audit report, various ministries and departments submitted audit reports of recurrent and development appropriation accounts that were inaccurate. No action has been taken to people involved.

The audit report of the year 2009/2010 reported many such appropriations accounts which had errors and reflected balances that did not reconcile with those shown in the respective ledgers.

The 2010/2011 Budget also revealed expenditure amounting to more than Sh3 billion that had been excluded from the Appropriation Accounts, leading to total expenditure being understated.

Uhuru will gain support if he can also take action of his own Jubilee list of the 10 greediest MPs in the 11th Parliament who are purely driven by money instead of how to make Kenyans lives better.

First he is to deal with Mithika Linturi, the Jubilee Igembe South MP who tabled a Motion in Parliament requesting for disbandment of SRC, so that a new team can be appointed to increase their salaries.

He is also to deal with Justin Muturi, the Speaker of the National Assembly and who is also his close confidante. He has been passionately fighting for an increase of MPs salaries.

The next one is Aden Duale, the Jubilee Leader of Majority in the House and a close confidante of Deputy President William Ruto. Duale, who is Garissa Township MP, has been using abusive words to Kenyans when fighting for his huge salary.

The next is Jimmy Angwenyi, the Kitutu Chache North MP. He has been fighting the SRC from the day he was elected to Parliament. The MP even cries when he speaks about how small his salary is.

The next one is Gladys Wanga, a CORD Homabay County Women representative. Wanga has been passionately fighting for salary increment from the day she was elected in office by Homabay electorate.

She is followed by Jakoyo Midiwo, a CORD Gem MP. Midiwo has been saying that the MP salary is so small and cannot sustain his high-end life. He has been calling for the disbandment of SRC.

Uhuru is also to deal with Aden Keynan, the Jubilee Wajir West MP whoa has also been supporting the disbandment of SRC.

He is also to deal with Alice Muthoni, Jubilee Kandara MP for urging MPS to demand higher salaries. Kandara residents have already threatened to eject her once the MP salaries are reviewed.

The next one is Richard Onyonka, a Kitutu Chache South MP for aggressively debating on how the SRC can be disbanded to pave way for his salary increment.

The last one Uhuru is to deal with is Dr Eseli Simuyu, the Kimilili legislator. He has been contributing immensely on how the SRC can be disbanded.

Uhuru wants to open a website where when you go to look for help in government offices and you are asked to give a bribe you can immediately report the person.

All one will be required to do is log in, and there will be a place to record the name, ministry, department and position of the culprit to get them arrested.

Similar website was opened in Sierra Leone but has failed to work because practically those who are implicated are close confidante to the president. Since it was created, 95 percent of all residents said in a poll that corruption is still rampant in most government departments.

Even in Kenya since the resignation of anti-corruption czar John Githongo, some years ago, corruption has persisted in Kenya but no action has been taken because like Sierra Leone they involve close confidante to the president.

It explains why former President Mwai Kibaki could not act on the list of names of the MPs who voted for the inclusion of the controversial 2 billion shillings severance pay package in the Finance Amendment Bill 2012.

This was despite that the pay package got a lot of opposition from Kenyans who demonstrated in the streets of Nairobi before concluding their march at parliament buildings where they chanted ‘mwizi’ (thief in English).

Instead President Kibaki rejected the amendment terming it ‘unconstitutional and untenable’. Here are the names;

Real change must come from ordinary people who refuse to be taken hostage by the weapons of politicians in the face of inequality, racism and oppression, but march together towards a clear and unambiguous goal.
