It's been about ethnicity and political payback, not the constitution.

In order to maintain the integrity of the investigation, those implicated should step aside while the Kenya Anti-Corruption Commission (KACC) investigates the allegations against them.

The ministry can affect our independence through delayed disbursements or reallocation of the budget.
