Focus on Africa

Available for over a year

Corruption often makes the headlines when it is a matter of big business or bad governance. But it can also involve smaller enterprises. The Kenyan chief justice recently said the country's counterfeit economy is worth an annual $1.2bn (£844m). Âé¶¹Éç Africa's Kim Chakanetsa went along to a street in Kenya's capital, Nairobi, where it is possible to find anything from fake currency to forged documents. Photo: Peter Njoroge, Âé¶¹Éç Africa
