I get Full Pay and Benefits Despite Stepping Aside, Kambi

Kambi, who was appearing before the Parliamentary Investment Committee (PIC), said that he continued enjoying all the benefits from the government despite graft allegations levelled against him by the Ethics and Anti-Corruption Commission (EACC) a month ago.

Kambi – who stepped aside after being mentioned in the EACC dossier tabled in Parliament by President Uhuru Kenyatta – is accused of influencing the National Social Security Fund (NSSF) Tassia-2 project which was inflated from Ksh 3 billion to Ksh 5 billion.

He stepped down following President Kenyatta’s directive to top government officers to step down to pave way for investigations into the graft allegations.

Previously, Kambi had been quoted as saying that he does not condone corruption and that should he ever be found guilty of corruption, the President should take a gun and shoot him at close range.

Kambi was among five Cabinet Secretaries who stepped down following the release of the report.

Others include Eng Michael Kamau of Transport, Charity Ngilu of Lands, Henry Koskei of Agriculture, and Davis Chirchir of Energy.
