(h) raise public awareness on ethical issues and educate the public on the dangers of corruption and enlist and foster public support in combating corruption but with due regard to the requirements of the Anti-Corruption and Economic Crimes Act, 2003 as to confidentiality;
(j) institute and conduct proceedings in court for purposes of the recovery or protection of public property, or for the freeze or confiscation of proceeds of corruption or related to corruption, or the payment of compensation, or other punitive and disciplinary measures.

(3) The Commission may cooperate and collaborate with other State organs and agencies in the prevention and investigation for corruption.
(4) The Commission shall have all powers necessary or expedient for the efficient and effective execution of its functions, under the Constitution, this Act or any other written law.
(5) The Commission may request and obtain professional assistance or advice from such persons or organizations as it considers appropriate.

Branded umbrellas, key tags, T-shirts, calendars, hats .... the whole mess with a 2000% margin for the eating chiefs.

The constitution of Kenya and that of Singapore are not the same so what u've posted is useless, go to the law you swore to uphold, what does it say? Whose interest is this commission serving?
