Stop taking bribes, Public Service boss warns police officers
Should Kenya show success in reducing its’ vulnerabilities, or should the global environment become more constructive for emerging markets, we could well see the shilling appreciate against the dollar

NAIROBI, Kenya, Sep 29 – The Head of the Public Service Commission (PSC), Felix Koskei, has urged police officers not to take bribes from illicit brewers.

Koskei urged the officers to also stop tax hemorrhages at border points.

“Alcohol, food and other products have been entering the country without paying for the required taxes and approval by the Kenya Bureau of Standards (KEBS) an issue that is endangering the lives of Kenyans,“ Koskei said.

To create a conducive environment for investments, he urged the uniform men to make borders and roadblocks corruption-free.

“On behalf of the President, I am here to seek and secure your commitment on war against graft,” the Head of PSC stated.

“The president wants a Police Service that will contribute to the government to be efficient, effective and responsive to the needs of Kenyans together with those visiting Kenya.”

This comes at a time when President William Ruto has warned corrupt individuals against engaging in the practice.
