Kenya's Korn

No, not this kind, readers.

It's the kind you eat.


"Audit faults Kenya on corrupt food deals" by Associated Press | February 12, 2010

NAIROBI - Kenya wasted millions through corrupt deals in a government program meant to feed the country’s poor, a senior private auditor said yesterday.

Is there not one government on earth worth its salt?

A government-commissioned investigation by global audit firm PricewaterhouseCoopers found that Kenya lost as much as $26.1 million to corruption in a program meant to provide subsidized maize to the poor.

Even when they are helping they are only helping themselves.

Those losses are drastic in a country where the government estimates that 46 percent of the population of 30 million lives on less than a dollar a day.

Unimaginable here. Maybe not for long, though.

Philip Kinisu, chief executive of PricewaterhouseCoopers’s operations in Kenya, said the government-run National Cereals and Produce Board lost money by selling subsidized maize to fake companies....

Were they CIA fronts or.... ??

Yes, amazing how unmentioned that continues to be in my life-loving war papers, huh, world?

Too many "terrorists" and "threats" out there, never mind that it is the exact agenda the papers push that has caused the mess in East Africa -- the very same things the newspapers conceal.

Btw, when was the last time there was an article on
Somalia, Zimbabwe, or Sudan, huh, readers?

The MSM silence speaks for itself.
