While speaking when he went to console colleagues and
relatives of the Late Alex Mwangi Kaburu who was the immediate Thika East
Assistant County Commissioner 1 (ACC 1), Wainaina said that majority of these
delays were deliberate as unscrupulous civil servants sought for kickbacks to
trigger their processing.
“This country has
enough laws governing the transfer of such benefits to the next of kin. Other
than cases where there is some family disagreement over who should benefit,
most of the delays are artificial as corrupt public servants seek for bribes,”
he said.
He promised to assist, where possible, to ensure that the
family of the late Kaburu did not undergo this suffering once they commenced
the process to follow up his reparation.
