Peter Eigen, a former World Bank executive director who served as WB's resident director in Kenya, was reportedly moved by the misery of Kenya's underprivileged class to form Transparency International (TI), an anti-corruption watchdog. TI defines corruption as the abuse of public office for private gain. Its annual perceptions index has been indicating that Kenya is one the most corrupt countries in the world. Smiles of the London graft experts as they met with Foreign Affairs Minister Major (Rtd) Marsden Madoka in his office, could not conceal the fact. Everywhere the graft team went, they were met with muted concerns about their ability to eradicate the vice threatening to throw Kenya into a fratricidal economic mess.
