NAIROBI, Kenya, Apr 8 \u2014 The Ethics and Anti-Corruption Commission(EACC) has begun a two-week induction program for more than 80 newly recruited officers, signaling a renewed push to strengthen Kenya\u2019s fight against corruption.<\/strong><\/p>\n

The program, officially launched Tuesday at the Kenya School of Government, comes as authorities grapple with increasingly sophisticated forms of graft, including complex financial schemes and digital concealment.<\/p>\n

Speaking at the opening session, EACC Chief Executive Abdi Mohamud described the recruits\u2019 appointment as both an honor and a national responsibility, urging them to uphold integrity in the face of evolving challenges.<\/p>\n

\u201cPublic expectations have grown significantly,\u201d Mohamud said.<\/p>\n

\u00a0\u201cYour joining the Commission comes at a critical time when the fight against corruption requires fresh energy, integrity, and professionalism.\u201d<\/p>\n

He noted that the Commission operates under a constitutional and legal mandate to prevent and combat corruption, but warned that emerging trends demand greater vigilance and innovation.<\/p>\n

Mohamud outlined key priorities for the agency, including closer monitoring of large-scale public projects, curbing bribery in service delivery, strengthening asset recovery efforts, and deepening collaboration with regulators and professional bodies to improve compliance and accountability.<\/p>\n

In her remarks, Deputy Director for Human Resource Management Petronila Kyengo urged the new officers to maintain the highest ethical standards, describing integrity as \u201cnon-negotiable.\u201d<\/p>\n

She called for discipline, teamwork, and accountability, noting that corruption is often interconnected and requires coordinated institutional responses.<\/p>\n

The induction program is designed to equip recruits with the knowledge, skills, and values needed to effectively carry out the Commission\u2019s mandate.<\/p>\n

Officials encouraged participants to actively engage in the sessions and fully immerse themselves in the training.<\/p>\n

Mohamud expressed confidence in the new cohort\u2019s ability to contribute meaningfully to the agency\u2019s work and formally declared the program open.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
