Rent-seeking government officials and corrupt businessmen are diverting donor-funded free HIV medication for sale in the black market, denying poor Kenyans access to the life-saving drugs, a Business Daily investigation has revealed.
Essential medicines, including antibiotics procured with the help of American aid agency USAid and specifically meant for distribution by the Kenya Medical Supplies Agency (Kemsa), are some of the drugs that are illegally being sold in the market.
