The Ottawa Citizen has posted a story detailing the exposure of corruption within the highest ranks of the reformist government of Kenya by Secretary for Ethics and Governance John Githongo. Mr. Githongo was appointed by the Kenyan government in 2002 to tackle corruption within the country, but was expected to look the other way when it came to the officials in government office. Instead, Mr. Githongo painstakingly documented and recorded incriminating evidence against the officials and publically exposed them after leaving the country for fear of his life.

FYI: NOT CONFIDENTIAL! I would like to share with you a late but happy victory of another "whistle-blowing" against a very big international organisation, IFRC Dear All "David's",
I would like to share with you all a late but happy victory of an other "whistle-blowing" (after http://www.ombudsman.europa.eu/decision/en/031875.htm) against a very big international organisation (a real live "David against Goliath"), to give you a bit of strengths not to give up, never... ;-).
Keeping straight and honest will bring you further, them bending your self and others or being a thief...
When I was working for IFRC (International Federation of Red Cross) as Deputy Water Sanitation Co-ordinator for Indonesia in the aftermath of the Tsunami in a family accompanied position. For security reasons (earthquakes) I was most of the time separated from my family. I was based in Banda Ache and my family (my wife a British and my 2y. daughter) remained circa 600 km away in Medan (very big town). During my absence they been treated by two of my former colleagues (delegates) in charge (Swiss and Swedish men) like dirt, putting them even in health danger, as they have darker skins them other Europeans. |

Usa Today reports "Detroit Mayor Kwame Kilpatrick and his chief of staff lied about their relationship last summer at a police whistle-blower trial that has cost the cash-strapped city more than $9 million, according to records obtained by the Free Press. The false testimony potentially exposes them to felony perjury charges, legal experts say. Kilpatrick and chief of staff Christine Beatty denied during testimony in August that they had a sexual relationship. But the records, a series of text messages, show them engaged in romantic banter as well as planning and recounting sexual liaisons." The Kilpatrick-Christine Beatty relationship and Gary Brown’s dismissal are central to the whistle-blower suit filed by Brown and Harold Nelthrope. The two former police officers accuse Kwame Kilpatrick of retaliating against them because of their roles in an internal investigation of the mayor’s security team — a probe that potentially could have exposed his affair with Beatty.

From the Edmonton Journal - "A stunning 15 million Canadians were repeatedly targeted by mass-marketing fraudsters in the past year and one million were victims, a major study commissioned by Competition Bureau of Canada has found. The study, the first of its kind in Canada, also debunks the myth that victims are likely to be older and poorly educated. In fact, it says, Canadians under 30 and middle-income earners are most likely to be defrauded. Based on a survey of 6,116 Canadians, the Environics study was delivered to the Competition of Bureau Canada earlier this month and posted to a government website this week." |
