Friends,

There is a news item in BBC World news with a rather amusing title- "Kenyan 
corruption chief resigns" The words startle you initially and the meaning gets 
clear only when you go to the next line- "Kenya's much-criticised 
anti-corruption chief has resigned just weeks after he was reappointed by the 
president." Aaron Ringera said he was stepping down in the best interests of 
the country. Mr Ringera has come under fire from Kenyans for not doing enough 
to tackle corruption. Interestingly, this anti-corruption Chief  is Kenya's 
best-paid civil servant, earning 2.5m shillings ($34,000; £21,000) a month - a 
higher salary than the president. 
So do we have a few lessons to learn from here ?
