ACB bemoans poor service delivery

Anti-Corruption Bureau (ACB) has revealed that their campaign in Salima has established that communities were neglecting to access services because they were being asked to pay for services that were meant to be offered for free.

ACB Principal Public Relations Officer (PPRO), Egritta Ndala disclosed this Monday in Salima during a press briefing after wrapping up their two week anti-corruption campaign in the district.

She said that they opted for public forum discussions whereby they brought together duty bearers and citizens as a move to improve service delivery in the district.

“In our long run of combating corruption we received a lot of queries that is why we thought it wise to bring two parties together so that duty bearers explain services and how to access them, citizens also asked questions where they want clarification,” Ndala said.

Traditional Authority (TA) Ndindi lamented on unwillingness of some public sector players to prevent corruption in their institutions as one of the challenges in the fight against corruption in the district.

He applauded ACB for putting in place strategies that would help to fight corruption swiftly and to ensure they prevent future corruption.
