The Minister of Internal Affairs Gen Aronda has received the long
awaited report on corruption and mismanagement at the Directorate of
Citizenship and Immigration Control. Theprobe headed by D-IGP
OkothOchola gives an account of witnesses by the different people-some
of them employees in the Internal Affairs Ministry and is anticipated
to cause the much needed changes in the Directorate.

"It is an Inquiry into allegations of Corruption, Mismanagement and
Abuse of Office in the Directorate of Citizenship and Immigration
Control, following the huge public outcry about service delivery in
the Directorate of Immigration", the Minister remarked majority of
which he added, were "a risk to National Security".

Hon. Aronda cited over-charging, poor customer care, and delayed
issuance of passports, challenges, he said; were a call on the
leadership to act immediately for improved service delivery.

Aronda said that he felt that there was need to expand and develop the
Directorate of Immigration in critical areas like Capacity building
and training, Human Resource, and the general automated infrastructure
of the Directorate.

Gen. Aronda also highlighted the issue of the various entry and exit
points with only a few of them being gazatted. The structure, Gen
remarked, was so restrictive, yet "there is an obvious need to
transform the Directorate with specific objectives. He cited some of
the objectives as taking care of National Security, stemming illegal
Immigration, effective and efficient manning of entry and exit points,
taking into consideration the operationalization ofEast African
Community Protocols on free movement of goods, services and people,
addressing allImmigration concerns and, to be in direct tandem with
the International Civil Authority Organisation standards.
