Former head of public service Francis Muthaura has advised government agencies to reward anti-corruption heroes to curb the vices that have significantly affected the public sector. Muthaura was speaking during the International Anti-Corruption Day event, where he gave a public lecture titled "Fighting Corruption In Developing Economies: Reform Opportunities For Kenya." "Government agencies should design and implement mechanisms for rewarding anti-corruption champions. With the EACC reports showing that the most significant chunk of high-calibre corruption cases in the public service was linked to public procurement, Muthaura noted a need to address tender laws. The Director of the Directorate of Criminal Investigation, Amin Mohamed, and Ethics and Anti-Corruption Chairperson, Bishop David Oginde, attended the lecture.
