THE MOMBASA EXPERIENCE by NAJIEB BALALA (FORMER MAYOR OF MOMBASA, KENYA) ETHICAL LOCAL GOVERNMENT
ثبت نشده
چکیده
I feel greatly honoured to have been invited to participate as one of five international panellists in a session devoted to “Ethical Local Government” at this Conference. This is a subject very close to my heart and I have as a result gained a measure of notoriety in my home country Kenya for having charted out a course and paving the way for a transparent and accountable system of Local Administration as the Mayor of Mombasa. What happened to me is a testimony of the extent of corruption that has permeated Local Authorities.
