Abstract

Public sector employees receive lower salary than their counterpart in the private sector in Somalia and this creates an environment where government employees are at risk of committing the offence due to low wages, there is some consensus that suggests low wages for civil servant in developing economies can be blamed since employees don’t receive enough salary to live for, studies insisted that the poorly paid civil servant will likely to seek bribes.In this article I will explore Reasons behind Corruption in Somalia, It’s good to increase civil servants salary as a tool to prevent corruption but it will not eliminate corruption unless there are elements of good governance in government.
