    "content": "With regard to salaries, the salary of the Director of KACC was formulated by the Advisory Board. If there is a person to be blamed for the high salary, then it is that Board. It is the one that came up with this salary. The intention was to insulate the Director from temptation. I think to that extent, they have succeeded. However, his salary has been questioned and probably, it is the new Board, as soon as it is gazetted, for it to look at all these salaries. Salaries should be done in relation to other bodies. I have said before that the President being the Chief Executive of the Government and all the parastatals, nobody should earn more than him. Period! If we were to make that decision, then the salaries for Chief Executive Officers of parastatals, the CBK, the Kenya Revenue Authority, Commissioner-General and even Ministers will fall under the President. That will make sense."
