How to deal with NGOs’ corruption

Kenyans have in recent weeks been waking up to revelations of multi-billion-shilling corruption scandals, some of which relate to the safety of consumable products illegally being sold in the local markets.

The reports have mainly centered on government ministries and public funded institutions.
