“As I said before, my name first and foremost is not there,” Uhuru stated to the media who had insisted that he was part of the scandal he was tangled into the tax havens report by the International Consortium of Investigative Journalists. “There has been no mention of any illegality or wrongdoing on my part.” The president added that he would address the issue once he returned to the country.
Journalist John Allan Namu’s Africa Uncensored led in exposing the tax havens where billionaires, politicians, and celebrities stash their wealth.
In his statement released by State House on the day after, Uhuru stated that the report and any other audits will set the record straight and unveil secrets for those who cannot explain sources of their wealth."These reports will go a long way in enhancing the financial transparency and openness that we require in Kenya and around the globe. The movement of illicit funds, proceeds of crime, and graft thrive in an environment of secrecy and darkness," stated the President.
