According to Noel Behane, who is the organisation’s Interim President for its newly-formed Zimbabwean chapter, the organisation has attracted more than 2000 members since it was formed and is already scouring public institutions and political parties, where it has unravelled a number of corrupt activities that it wants to expose.
“Our movement’s main objective is to shake dictatorship and corruption that is affecting Africa, Zimbabwe included,” Behane told The Zimbabwean. “We are targeting these two scourges – dictatorship and corruption, at all levels of institutions of our society.”
Besides Zimbabwe, the organisation, which was founded by Kenyan George Luchiri Wajackoyah has chapters in Kenya, Ghana and neighbouring South Africa.
“We formed the Zimbabwean chapter after wide consultations with Wajackoya. We intend to engage with government, all political parties, civil society and the people of Zimbabwe to fight corruption, which has reached a very critical level in this country and needs to be urgently addressed,” added Behane. “We are currently gathering statistics from relevant sources, including Transparency International, on research previously done on the same issue and TI founder – Peter Eigen is giving us great support.”
