The Ethics and Anti-Corruption Commission, EACC, is the constitutional commission charged with the responsibility of investigating and arraigning people suspected of corruption cases. However, the commission’s biggest challenge is the inability to access information needed to commence investigations over a particular case.
To increase reportage, EACC engages members of the public, government departments and agencies to help it get information on corruption.

The following are methods set aside by the EACC through which any person can report a corruption case.
Anonymous Method
The commission has a standardized whistleblower system known as BKMS, which ensures the identity of a reporter remains anonymous. The system was developed to help individuals who fear being identified. The platform uses modern technology to secure the identity of users submitting reports.
To report a case using the BKMS system, visit the commission website at www.eacc.go.ke
By Email
Kenyans who come across behaviours that can harm the nation can also report such cases through EACC’s email below.
