I know I may be repeating the obvious but the place where Mr Kinoti and his team should put the most emphasis is in following the money. Isn’t it time we brought other conduits — such as lawyer-client accounts, numbered bank accounts and nominee accounts in banks — into the purview and dragnet of the FRC? This is the heart of the matter in the investigations Mr Kinoti is conducting. Where is the sense and economic merit of releasing Sh20 billion to a bankrupt contractor, especially when we cannot pay local contractors on time? Call me a conspiracy theorist if you like but these dams were conceived to facilitate release of kickbacks and backhanders.
