EACC busted a bribery ring at the Kenya Institute of Highways and Building Technology in Kisii after instructors Philip Dawa and Fidel Omondi allegedly forced students to cough up cash to pass their driving tests. The anti-corruption squad raided the campus and grabbed Omondi with a fat envelope holding 171,000 shillings, and they say he moved 8 million through M-Pesa while Dawa pushed 34 million over three years.
Students had to pay 3,100 shillings or get auto-failed, and some kids passed without even taking the actual test because the instructors split the bribes with NTSA examiners. The whole operation also involved collecting tuition fees through personal phone numbers instead of the official system, and students paid 40,000 instead of the required 65,000.
