The Ethics and Anti-Corruption Commission (EACC) has issued a stern warning to public and civil servants at all levels of government against diverting funds to unauthorised projects as the financial year draws to a close.
In remarks delivered on behalf of EACC CEO Abdi Mohamud during the official opening of an Integrity and Anti-Corruption Workshop for senior leadership of the Bungoma County Government in Kisumu, Western Region Manager Eric Ngumbi revealed that the Commission will deploy experts to scrutinise budget allocations at both national and county levels.
This, he noted, aims to ensure the early detection and prevention of corruption in flagged projects.
The Commission also announced plans to intensify investigations into unexplained wealth and the illegal acquisition of public assets by launching lifestyle audits and profiling targeted public officials.
