The Port Anti-Corruption Standing Committee is to partner other government agencies at the ports in its fight against corruption.
Coordinator of the committee, Enoche Ogenyi said the committee would meet with all the agencies on Tuesday.
According to her, because of the activities of the committee, the level of corruption at the ports has reduced drastically.
She explained that although no specific parameter was used, the committee usually embarked on random sampling, which had helped to reduce the trend.
Ogenyi also attributed the reduction of corruption at the ports to the introduction of electronic transactions by all operators.
The anti-corruption committee was inaugurated 10 years ago to rid the ports of all forms of corrupt practices, including fake documentation.
Ogenyi emerged as the coordinator of the committee two weeks ago, following the death of Suleiman Hameen, who died inside a plane on his way from Hajj in September.
