The Ethics and Anti-Corruption Commission (EACC) has issued a stern warning to public and state officers against engaging in partisan politics, emphasizing that such actions compromise impartiality and public trust ahead of the 2027 elections.

• EACC Chairperson David Oginde stressed that public officials must serve all citizens equally, regardless of political affiliation.
• The commission, led by CEO Mohamud Abdi, stated it will take action against any officials violating the law on political neutrality.
• This warning comes amidst increasing political activity and concerns of public officers openly taking partisan stances, which may contravene Chapter Six of the Constitution on leadership and integrity.
