A recent report by the Ethics and Anti-Corruption Commission (EACC) highlights the institutions where Kenyans are most likely to pay the highest bribes, with the Kenya Wildlife Service (KWS) topping the list. Despite a drop in the national average bribe, corruption remains deeply entrenched in several key public bodies.

• The Kenya Wildlife Service (KWS) recorded the highest average bribe payment at Ksh200,000, accounting for 35.73 percent of all reported bribes.
• The National Social Security Fund (NSSF) and the Pensions Department under the National Treasury followed with average bribes of Ksh47,129 and Ksh40,000, respectively.
• The National Ethics and Corruption Survey (NECS) 2024 revealed that 43.3 percent of respondents paid bribes to access public services, with police officers, National Registration Bureau officers, and medical officers identified as top recipients.
