Kenya Revenue Authority (KRA) is a corrupt institution.
Today, the Cabinet Secretary for National Treasury Henry Rotich has appointed James Githii Mburu to replace long time crook KRA Commissioner General John Njiraini, whose tenure has been unnecessarily extended to give him some time to hide his loot and those of his cronies.
By this appointment, President Uhuru Kenyatta has ensured that the war on corruption is defeated.
As this site has previously pointed out; Kenyatta is not serious in the war on corruption and continues perpetuates his crony capitalism, state capture.
After the Gazette notice became public, Kenyans took to social, with many expressing their diapleasure:
Below are some of the tweets we sampled:
Uthamaki nation is reaping big from Uhuru's government. In the morning it was Dr Patrick Njoroge and this afternoon it's James Gathii Mburu replacing John Njiraini. Seems only Mt Kenya can manage effectively our finances. Thank you the son of Jomo, the country is doing well. pic.twitter.com/bjysUDgpuI

James Mburu {Kikuyu} appointed to replace John Njiraini {Kikuyu} as commissioner General at KRA the same day Dr Patrick Njoroge {Kikuyu} is reappointed as CBK governor. This means the other 47 tribes are incapable of managing Kenya money conduits, but labor to contribute. pic.twitter.com/egXBs4bo7H
