Gatundu North member of parliament Wanjiku kibe has warned the business people to be wary of some foreign investors whom she said are hell-bent on tarnishing the name of the country.According to her, some investors have been doing corrupt deals in their hometowns and implicating it on diligent business people."Kenya is being given a very bad name out there. Some big investors from abroad rob their companies in the name of securing some kickbacks to come and give Kenyan corporations in order to get contracts and tenders but when you look here there isn't such money that was brought," said Kibe.Kibe says that the money ends in the pockets of CEOs of these companies which they later come to invest with here in Kenya individually.The MP further notes that the investors have created a perception in their home countries that Kenya is a corrupt nation that relies on bribes to give important government tenders and contracts."This is something as Kenyans we have to say no to by simply doing the right things. Let us also shun dirty deals even here at home" she said.She was speaking to entrepreneurs in Gatundu Town on Monday evening.
