Clergy Supports President Kenyatta on Lifestyle Audit of Civil Servants.
PRESIDENT Uhuru Kenyatta’s
recent sentiment on lifestyle audit for all civil servants has gotten a major
boost after a clergy from Nyanza region has supported the move.
Arch Bishop Dr. Winnie Owiti
of the Voice of Salvation and Healing Church International says the President
has done the right thing and it is a bold step towards fighting corruption in
the country.
Speaking in Kisumu today
after arriving from United States of America where she has been for seven weeks
on a gospel preaching mission, the clergy has said she is really saddened by
level of corruption in the country and lauds the President’s bold move to fight
against corruption by ordering lifestyle audit for all civil servants.
Arch Bishop Owiti says
corruption is really killing the smallholder businesses across the country
hence the need to tame it.
“I am really in support of
President Uhuru Kenyatta on the fight against corruption in the country by
agreeing for a lifestyle audit be carried about him as the civil servant number
one in the country and extend it to other civil servants. This is a very bold
move and I support it as a clergy,” the Arch Bishop says.
The clergy says the Head of
State should target all the sectors in the national government in his move to
fight corruption in the country.
“As a clergy, I think the
President is even willing to forgive those who are ready to surrender whatever
they have acquired through corruption hence they should also be ready to
surrender such wealth,” Dr. Owiti adds.
Arch Bishop Owiti says the
fight against corruption in the country is not targeting any individual or a
particular community at all.
“The fight against corruption
in the country spearheaded by the President in my opinion is not targeting any
individual or a particular community at all hence should not be seen as one
sided,” the clergy further said.
On the issue of the
importation of sugar with mercury, the clergy says such like a thing should not
happen at all, adding that such a move will lead to total collapse of sugar
factories especially in the large Western Kenya region.
“People in Western Kenya
Region have suffered a lot since they grow sugar cane but some powerful forces
end up importing cheap sugar which is equally said to be having mercury and it
is not good at all hence such like things should be discouraged,” the Clergy
adds.
