EDITORIAL: Kenya's immigration scandal is back in the headlines, and for a good reason. Yet again, The Standard newspaper’s investigative unit has exposed a rot so entrenched within the Immigration Department and the National Registration Bureau that one is left wondering whether those in authority actually want it stopped. Foreign nationals, especially from Somalia, Ethiopia, Burundiand Uganda, are acquiring Kenyan identity cards and passports through a well-organised syndicate of corrupt officials, paid brokers and hired 'parents'. One man in the NRB database reportedly appears as the father of over 100 people. An Ethiopian labourer at Kiamaiko goat market admits, on camera, that he bought his Kenyan ID in Marsabit for Sh15,000. This is a dangerous business that must be nipped in the bud. https://t.co/12uEN8Xlej
