Bishop Oginde, the Ethics and Anti-Corruption Commission (EACC) chairman has issued a stern warning.

This is regarding the utilization of counterfeit academic credentials for job acquisition.

He delivered this message while in Kisumu, emphasizing that the prevalence of fake certificates is undermining the strides made in the education sector.

Bishop Oginde shared that the long arm of the law would inevitably catch up with them.

He specified that individuals found using bogus certificates would not only face legal consequences but would also be compelled to reimburse their monthly salaries, forfeit acquired assets, and relinquish resources earned during the period of employment.

“We will pursue the recovery of all the money obtained through this deceptive practice, even if you have worked for 20 years.

We will seek to reclaim all the earnings accrued during that time,” warned Bishop Oginde unequivocally.

Bishop Oginde talked about his deep concern over the rising rate of reported cases of land grabbing.

Furthermore, he revealed that EACC, in collaboration with the county government, actively participates in reclaiming unlawfully acquired public land in Kisumu through legal channels.

“We are committed to ensuring that all grabbed public land is rightfully restored.

We aspire to witness a scenario where every Kenyan owns property that rightfully belongs to them,” added Bishop Oginde emphatically.
