The Ethics and Anti-Corruption Commission (EACC) has intensified efforts to strengthen integrity and prevent corruption within the National Police Service (NPS) through targeted capacity-building for Integrity Assurance Officers (IAOs) in the Coastal Region.

The training is aimed at equipping the officers with the knowledge and practical skills to identify corruption risks, address institutional integrity gaps and champion ethical conduct within their respective stations and formations.

The initiative builds on a systems review conducted by EACC within the National Police Service, which identified institutional and operational vulnerabilities that expose the Service to corruption risks. The training seeks to address these gaps by strengthening internal prevention mechanisms, promoting ethical leadership and fostering a sustainable culture of integrity in policing.

Speaking during the training in Mombasa, EACC Lower Coast Deputy Regional Manager Jarso Dida, who represented Regional Manager Abdulhamid Low, underscored the critical role of Integrity Assurance Officers in preventing corruption and promoting ethical standards within the Service. He urged the participants to uphold professionalism, impartiality, discipline and accountability, and to translate the knowledge acquired into practical action.

The Guest of Honour, Coast Regional Deputy Police Commander Ambrose Steve Oloo, representing Regional Police Commander Ali Nuno Dubat, challenged the officers to be agents of change by demonstrating integrity in their daily responsibilities and leading by example.

“You should be like a pencil. Leave a mark, and if the mark is bad, erase it and leave a good mark,” he said, calling on the officers to make a positive and lasting impact in their respective workstations.

Upon completion of the programme, the Integrity Assurance Officers are expected to spearhead corruption risk assessments, develop institutional anti-corruption frameworks, strengthen reporting mechanisms, monitor the implementation of preventive initiatives and foster partnerships that support corruption prevention.

The training is being conducted by EACC through the Kenya Ethics and Anti-Corruption Academy (EACA), in collaboration with the National Police Service and the United Nations Office on Drugs and Crime (UNODC). The programme is being rolled out across the Kisumu, Mombasa and Nakuru regions.

Through this initiative, EACC seeks to strengthen institutional accountability and nurture a transparent, ethical and citizen-centred National Police Service, where integrity is reflected not only in policy commitments but also in the everyday conduct of officers and their service to the public.

EACC Chief Executive Officer, Mr. Abdi Mohamud, has called for stronger partnerships among justice sector institutions to enhance the fight against corruption and economic crime in the country.

Speaking during the launch of the National Council on the Administration of Justice (NCAJ) Strategic Plan 2026–2030 at Safari Park Hotel, Nairobi, Mr. Mohamud reaffirmed the Commission’s commitment to working closely with the Judiciary, the Office of the Director of Public Prosecutions, the National Police Service and other agencies to strengthen accountability and promote the rule of law.

The CEO noted that collaboration among justice sector actors had contributed to significant achievements over the last three years, including 74 convictions and the recovery of KES 7.4 billion in illegally acquired and unexplained assets.

The Strategic Plan was officially launched by Chief Justice Martha Koome, who also chairs the NCAJ. She was accompanied by other justice sector stakeholders.

The launch provided an opportunity for justice sector institutions to renew their commitment to deeper multi-agency cooperation, faster determination of cases and the need to embrace technology-driven solutions.

The Ethics and Anti-Corruption Commission (EACC) welcomes the sentencing of former Kiambu Governor Ferdinand Ndung’u Waititu Babayao, his wife and two other individuals and corporate entities following their conviction for money laundering.

The Milimani Anti-Corruption Court imposed fines of up to Kes36 million on the accused persons and companies, with default prison terms ranging from two to 13 years.

The sentences followed a High Court decision delivered on October 14, 2026, which reinstated money laundering charges against Waititu, his wife Susan Wangari Ndung’u, and Charles Chege Mbuthia and his wife Beth Wangechi Mburu who are directors of Testimony Enterprises Limited.

The court imposed the following penalties:

1.Ferdinand Ndung’u Waititu Babayao: A fine of Kes21 million or 13 years’ imprisonment in default.

2.Charles Chege Mbuthia: A fine of Kes28 million or 13 years’ imprisonment in default.

3.Beth Wangechi Mburu: A fine of Kes6 million or six years’ imprisonment in default.

4.Susan Wangari Ndung’u: A fine of Kes2 million or two years’ imprisonment in default.

5.Testimony Enterprises Limited: A fine of Kes36 million.

6.Saika Two Estate (A company owned by Waititu and his wife Susan): A fine of Kes24 million.

The case originated from investigations launched by the Commission in 2019 following allegations that the County Government of Kiambu had irregularly awarded Testimony Enterprises Limited a contract worth Kes588 million for the upgrading of gravel roads to bitumen standards in Thika, Limuru, Gatundu North, Juja and Ruiru sub-counties during the 2017/2018 financial year.

On February 12, 2025, Waititu and his co-accused were convicted of various offences, including conflict of interest, dealing with suspected property, abuse of office, fraudulent procurement practices and wilful failure to comply with procurement laws and regulations.

For these offences, the court imposed the following penalties:

1.Ferdinand Ndung’u Waititu Babayao: 12 years’ imprisonment or a fine of Kes52,749,000.

2.Susan Wangari Ndung’u: One year’s imprisonment or a fine of Kes500,000.

3.Luka Mwangi Wahinya: Seven years’ imprisonment or a fine of Kesmillion.

4.Charles Chege Mbuthia: 11 years’ imprisonment or a fine of Kes297,048,110.

5.Beth Wangechi Mburu: Three years’ imprisonment or a fine of Kes1.4 million.

With the additional penalties imposed for money laundering, the cumulative fines and default custodial sentences for the four individuals are as follows, taking into account the concurrent running of custodial sentences as ordered by the High Court:

1.Ferdinand Ndung’u Waititu Babayao: Kes73,749,000 or 13 years’ imprisonment in default.

2.Susan Wangari Ndung’u: Kes2.5 million or two years’ imprisonment in default.

3.Charles Chege Mbuthia: Kes325,048,110 or 13 years’ imprisonment in default.

4.Beth Wangechi Mburu: Kes7.4 million or six years’ imprisonment in default.

The court further ordered Testimony Enterprises Limited and Saika Two Estate to pay their respective fines within 14 days, failure to which the amounts shall be recovered in accordance with Section 334 of the Criminal Procedure Code.

The case marks a significant milestone in Kenya’s efforts to combat money laundering, strengthen accountability for proceeds of corruption and advance the country’s commitment to addressing deficiencies identified by the Financial Action Task Force (FATF) as it works towards exiting the grey list.
