Theft of Sh1.5bn Passports and visas in Kenyan embassies

Auditor-General Edward Ouko said the Department of Immigration can only account for Sh1.5 billion passports and stickers against documents worth Sh2.9 billion delivered to the embassies in the two years to June last year. Embassies linked to the passport breach include prime missions like Washington DC, London, Berlin and Pretoria.

“In these circumstances, total revenue collected, excluding certificate of good conduct, identity cards and others of Sh2.99 billion, differs with the Sh1.52 billion reflected in the financial statements.”

Of the Sh2.9 billion, passports worth Sh268.5 million were delivered to the foreign missions while the embassies received visa stickers worth Sh2.7 billion.

The stickers are issued to foreigners who need visas to enter Kenya while the passports are issued to Kenyans in the diaspora.

Itabidi pasipoti za Kenya na hata stickers za visa ya Kenya kuangaliwa kwa umakini sana katika mipaka ya nchi, bandari na viwanja vya ndege kabla ya mwenye hizo pasipoti au visa kuruhusiwa kuingia katika nchi husika maana hili suala ni la kiusalama zaidi na halina mzaha.
 
Hiyo habari ya ukaguzi inasema kwamba ni pesa zimeibwa. Sijaona penye wamesema chchote kuhusu Ubora wa passipoti za Kenya..Pasipoti za Kenya ni bora zaidi..
