Kericho Governor Grilled Over Spending and Retreat Allowances Following Building Collapse

The devolved unit is under scrutiny for its expenditure of Sh3.7 million on allowances for officers who attended retreats in Kisumu, Mombasa, and Nairobi to discuss the collapse of a building in Kericho. Governor Eric Mutai has been called upon to clarify how the county utilized Sh341.5 million, despite the county assembly allocating Sh425.6 million for pending bills.

This situation has drawn attention to governance and financial management practices within the county, prompting calls for transparency and accountability in the allocation and use of public funds. The scrutiny underscores the importance of responsible fiscal management and oversight to ensure that resources are effectively directed towards addressing community needs and priorities.
