The Ethics and Anti-Corruption Commission (EACC) has issued a stern warning to political leaders against branding publicly funded projects with their personal names, images, or party symbols, deeming it an abuse of office and misuse of public resources.

• The directive, issued on June 23, 2026, by EACC Chief Executive Officer Abdi Mohamud, targets the growing trend of leaders associating government projects with their identities.
• The EACC emphasizes that such practices violate the Constitution of Kenya, 2010, and relevant management acts.
• Public entities are directed to ensure projects only identify the responsible government entity (National or County) for recognition, with non-compliance facing administrative or legal sanctions.
