President Uhuru Kenyatta today vowed to deal firmly and decisively with all unethical people caught in the web of corruption.
The president, reiterating his anti-graft message, said all Kenyans entrusted with responsibility must be ethical and ready to serve with a high sense of morality.
“We are not going to tolerate unethical people. People with responsibility must be ready to serve and not to be served,” said the Head of State.
He said ethics is not about getting big positions of authority in government but how those entrusted with responsibility exercise that authority.
This comes after senior government officials allegedly involved in the NYS scandal got arrested over Sh9 billion.
President Kenyatta spoke at State House, Nairobi when he presented Kenya High School with a new 51-seater bus and gym equipment, all valued at Sh8 million.
The modern gym equipment includes a Treadmill, Cross-trainer, Rower machine, Upright bike, Roman chair and a Recumbent bike.
The visit by the Kenya High School fraternity was a follow up visit done to the school by President Kenyatta on May 18 this year, where he laid the foundation for a ultra modern kitchen and dining hall, and a state-of-the-art science resource centre.
The president told the over 300 exuberant form four students who visited him at State House alongside their teachers and members of the board of governors that he had met part of the promise and that he expects them to fulfil their part of the bargain.
