Most billionaires in Kenya are not made through inventions or growth of ideas but from monopoly paved by the political system. Evidently, most of them have had interactions with the government in one way or another.

In the last seven years, billionaires and millionaires may have either doubled or tripled. For instance, in NYS scandals 1 and 2 and the 2014 Health scandals, millionaires who had no track record of gradual wealth creation were created overnight.
Today, the fight against corruption seems to be selective by targeting certain group of people or political opponents. The fight is a manipulative and cajoling one and therefore, the moment one joins to support the government of the day, he is deemed not corrupt.
Today, the public relies on politicians for information.
Politicians disseminate information based on their interests. They misinterpret information and manipulate the citizens by playing victim. The citizens end up electing corrupt leaders having played the tribal card.
