In a tweet, Ndii said fighting corruption in the country has become difficult because ‘cartels are head quartered at State House’.

He was responding to a tweeter user, @Hilux254, who had asked him on how Kenyans can deal with the corruption in the country.

“Hey Doc, Why can’t Kenya break this trusts and monopolies as America did to the Rockefellers and carnegies? What do we lack, lawyers? Proper law structures? What?” @Hilux254 said.
