\nblemish to the judicial system in our country,\u201d he observes.
\nwish to suppress the idea that power lies in those who are able carry out these
\nactivities of bribery and deceit. True power lies in abiding by the law. We
\nshould use this unfortunate occurrence as an example that there is no one above
\nthe law, be it those who facilitate in establishing it, such as
\njudges. Most importantly, we should not be afraid to notify or report to
\nthe authorities in case of any malevolent activities like these,\u201d the Police

\nagainst corruption. It is a principle that all citizens should continue to
\nembrace to sustain development and responsibility to protect and preserve the
\nrules that govern us.

\ncorrupt country in East Africa by a considerable margin. Incidents of bribery
\nare so low with a prevalence of 6 percent compared to neighbouring<\/span> countries
\nsuch as Uganda and Burundi that range from 30 percent.
