Conrad,

I find it really offensive that you would paint every single police and immigration officer as corrupt. I am sure that in our case (as in any other country) it's a few bad apples. There are many men and women who faithfully serve this country every day and are not what you describe.....

Given it will be the same corrupt police and immigration officers running this exercise, what will be the point?

Government to register all Kenyans afresh in digital database

I've always wondered why it's virtually impossible to get UK or US
citizenship through the back door, unless you get into a phony
marriage with a delinquent from those countries. Will setting up a
biometric database prevent rogue employees at the department of
registration from getting bribes to register foreigners as Kenyan
citizens? As far as I can remember, when I applied for the kipande,
all my 10 digits' prints were taken.
