The fight against corruption is still on course and the government will ensure the law is duly followed, to avoid possible discriminatory approach, State House spokesperson Kanze Dena has said.
On Friday, Catholic Bishops raised concerns about the graft purge, insisting that it has since slowed down despite media reports exposing several scandals within the country.
“We have allowed the dragon of corruption to pull us down to the point where we have accepted it to be our way of life. The scale and magnitude of the allegations of corruption reported in the media has reached alarming levels and this is threatening the fabric of the society,” Kenya Conference of Catholic Bishops (KCCB) chairman Archbishop Philip Anyolo said in a statement.
But Dena, in an interview at Radio Maisha on Monday, said President Uhuru Kenyatta remains committed in the graft purge, adding that all relevant agencies are involved in the crackdown.
"From the beginning the President has made it clear that he is fighting corruption, but he has also emphasized on the rule of law which must be followed. The fight is still on and all agencies are involved in the entire process," she said.
"Everything has its due process including the fight against corruption, this fight will take time but it will get done. We cannot have instant justice without following the rule of law," she added.
According to her, despite the fight strictly being anchored in the law, progress has been made by agencies mandated to fight graft. She asked Kenyans to be a little bit patient before results are yielded.
"The President wants all agencies to play their part in the fight against corruption. We have had good progress so far, and we must be patient and wait for the final results," Dena said.
