Kenya Power has begun conducting a lifestyle audit on its staff as it seeks to curb rampant fraud that has threatened to bring the electricity distributor to its knees.
The audit has reportedly started with the top executives before being cascaded to the utility’s 10,000 employees. The move while laudable will only meet its objective if it is carried out fairly, transparently and rigorously. The firm’s management has promised impartiality in the exercise that involves the Ethics and Anti-Corruption Commission.
