Why are we not speaking boldly about this? The other day, a friend of mine told me that a clerk at the Kenya Revenue Authority (KRA) owns four blocks of 64 units in Kitengela. Why are we allowing these things to happen? The clerk earns a monthly salary of Kshs60,000. How much do we earn? I do not even own a block of 10 flats. How can a clerk at the KRA own four blocks of 64 units?"}
