David Munyua reflects on creating one of the most incredible stories in World Darts Championship history! ๐
#WCDarts
If you have 32 minutes, I will show you how Nairobi County loses 32,949,346,981.
Yes, that's not a typo. KSH 32 billion.
Let me walk you through a trip to hell.
Data from 2023-2024.
The county had KSH 33 billion to spend. To serve 4.6 million residents.
The county employes around 16,000 people. 0.3% of the county population.
Step #1 - First order of business: Use 55% of the budget to pay salaries, to this 0.3% of the population.
That is KSH 18 billion. Now you have KSH 15 billion left.
You are told that the county entered into contracts with certain firms in 2021. The contracts were all supposed to lapse in 2022. They lapse. There are no extensions.
KSH 6.7 billion.
Side Note: Ghost workers galore. Quoting the auditor:
"Review of the bank remittance for April, May and June, 2024 revealed that seven thousand, seven hundred and seventy-seven (7,777), six thousand, one hundred twenty-three (6,123) and six thousand, eight hundred and three (6,803) officers respectively, shared the same bank accounts, agent code and branch code."
So letโs understand this fact pattern.
This yearโs wage bill goes up by 55% relative to last year. And the city did not hire 55% more people or raise salaries by 55%.
Then, you find out that, the auditor found out that between 6,123 and 7,777 people who got paid by the county as employees, shared their bank account with someone else who also got paid.
In other words, between 6,123 and 7,777 of the countyโs 16,000 employees are couples.
That is what Sakaja wants you to believe.
In addition, quoting the auditor verbatim:
โReview of the bank remittance for August, 2023, revealed that seventy-four (74) officers shared the same name.โ
74 officers have the same biographical information.
Step #2. Use KSH 1.2 billion to traverse the globe for totally useless trips.
In a city full of garbage - as you can see in one of the attachments, the county politicians and their lackies pull out their passports.
Book flights to Morocco - Marrakech, Morocco - a resort city, at the cost of KSH 37 million. They want to go study "proactive management". In Morocco. Two full weeks!
Look at examples:
19 people โ Marrakesh, Morocco โ โProactive Management Programme โ Ksh 37,235,843 (15 days, 10thโ24th June 2024)
8 people โ United Arab Emirates โ โConference Facilities and Trainingโโ Ksh 29,771,200 (7 days, 12thโ18th Feb 2024)
14 people โ Vancouver, Yale Town, Canada โ โSeminar on Leadership Management and Conflict Resolutionโ โ Ksh 10,920,000
9 people โ Italy โ โTraining on Strategic Stewardshipโ โ Ksh 9,822,120 (8 days, 13thโ20th Dec 2023)
14 people โ Canada โ โWorkshop on Leadership Management & Conflict Resolution"โ Ksh 9,611,748 (7 days, 5thโ11th Dec 2023)
6.7 people โ Dubai โ โPersonal Branding and People Professional Summitโ โ Ksh 8,993,450 (16 days, 18th Augโ2nd Sept 2023)
8 people โ New York โ 8th United Nations General Assembly โ Ksh 8,782,764 (8 days, 16thโ23rd Sept 2023)
9 people โ Dubai, UAE โ" Esami Pre-Retirement and Pension Planning Programmeโโ Ksh 8,132,061 (8 days, 29th Aprโ6th May 2024)
8 people โ Vancouver, Canada โ Conference โ Ksh 6,761,520 (17 days, 22nd Julyโ7th Aug 2023)
6 people โ Istanbul, Turkey โ Budgeting for Performance Management Programme โ Ksh 6,751,523 (11 days, 12thโ22nd Oct 2023)
6 people โ Singapore โ Financial Analyst Planning and Control Programmes โ Ksh 6,735,227 (10 days, 1stโ10th Nov 2023)
6 people โ Turkey โ Budgetary Performance Management Course โ Ksh 6,699,198 (11 days, 12thโ22nd Nov 2023)
The city is full of garbage. And @sakaja and his lackies are flying from Marrakesh to Vancouver.
Proactive management. Conflict resolution. Personal branding. Retirement.
You could make up this stuff, even if you wanted to.
When they are done with these shenanigans, Ksh. 1.2 billion is gone.
You have to wonder: Is there no course on how to collect garbage? Nothing like that, even in Galilee Israel?
Folks, this is insanity. This is not the behaviors of people who have common sense and business sense. It is not the behaviors of people who treat every shilling as the last shilling we have. Which is what must happen in government affairs.
So, KSH 1.2 billion is wasted like that.
Total damage so far? KSH 6.7 billion in salary heist 1.2 billion in wasteful travel=KSH 7.9 billion.
Letโs keep going.
KSH 839,933,289 in salary expenses cannot be substantiated because there is ZERO records. No names of employees, departments, evidence of payment. Just a claim. Basically, KSH 839 million in the KSH 18 billion I mentioned above have no support whatsoever. This wage bill itself increased by 55% this year compared to last year.
The county still employes less than 0.5% of the county population.
Step #3. Lose Kshs.140,944,662 through a โduplicate paymentโ to a โvendorโ. No explanation for why a duplicate payment was made. And this is not corrected.
Step #4. Lose Kshs.478,485,041 to pending bills that nobody has ever heard about.
Step #5. Lose another Kshs. 2,005,937,441 in relation to pending bills.
Pay attention here.
The county says it owes KPLC Kshs.724,964,162, but when auditors verify the balance with KPLC, they find out that the county actually owes Kshs.2,730,901,603.
This likely says that, the county pretended to be paying down pending bills at some point, but the funds went somewhere else, such as, a corrupt officialโs bank account. So the bill is still outstanding, but the cash in the cityโs accounts is gone.
Step #5. Lose another Kshs. 791,013,848 in relation to pending bills. The auditor finds an additional 791 million in bills that are owed, but which the county has not reported.
At this point, letโs make sure you understand how pending bills come about.
If you are a government and you are smart and accurate in budgeting, you can estimate what you will spend. And if you are Nairobi County and you have Ksh 33 billion to spend, you have enough to pay your way. But, if in budgeting you put down โKsh 500 million in luxury travel and then spend Ksh 1.2 billion, then you wonโt have Ksh 700 million to pay the entire amount. That is a bill that ends up being hidden, or increases pending bills. But there are also many cases where corrupt politicians introduce pending bills as a way to steal. You blame the previous government, and then prioritize paying new claims that have no support.
Or, cash is stolen from bank. That cash was designed to pay certain bills, and now, there is no money to cover those bills. They become "pending".
Step #7. Lose Kshs.6,269,546,657 to 4 lawyers. Of the actual โgenuine pending billsโ, is Kshs.6,269,546,657 owed to just 4 lawyers. Equivalent to 20% of the annual budget. Can you believe that?
Listen to the auditor:
"It was noted that most of the Court cases related to issues such as disputes of unpaid claims for goods/works/services completed by contractors, un-procedural termination of employment contracts, irregular procurement processes and poor contract management. The judgements entered against the County Executive resulted to a high cost of litigations and interests."
In other words, corruption and mismanagement of county affairs take another Kshs. 6.3 billion. 100% wasteful.
Step #8. Lose another Kshs.1,393,234,865 in compensation that cannot be supported. Payment vouchers generally used for temporary workers worth 1,393,234,865 have no support. No one can tell you John Maina or Alice Omondi was employed here, for x amount of time, and got paid Ksh X.
Step #9. Lose another Kshs. 28,861,597 in compensation that cannot be supported.
Within the healthcare delivery expenses, it is found out that (62) National Identity numbers were used to pay people duplicate payments. In other words, one person appears in sone system used to pay. They get paid. You look at another system used to pay people for different things. The same person, same ID, appears again, and is paid.
Consider these additional damning factors:
>>Some officersโ basic salary changed multiple times during the year with some changing 6 times
>> Three thousand, two hundred and sixteen (3,216) officers changed job groups more than once, twenty-four (24) of whom changed job groups three (3) times.
>> Three (3) officers had their payroll numbers attached to different National Identification numbers at various times of the year.
>>Twenty-four (24) officers had their payroll numbers attached to different Tax pins at various times of the year.
>> One hundred ninety-seven (197) officers had their birth dates changed multiple times.
Step #10. Lose another Kshs. Kshs.301,400,000 in โbursariesโ that cannot be accounted for. The county says we sent money to schools X, Y, and Z.
The auditor tries confirming these claims. And nobody can confirm it.
Step #11. Lose Kshs.140,313,872 in claimed โcivil works expensesโ.
You are told that the county entered into contracts with certain firms in 2021. The contracts were all supposed to lapse in 2022. They laspse. There are no extensions.
There is NOT ONE document telling you what the contractors were to do, and for how much.
But the county goes ahead and pays Kshs.140,313,872.
Step #12. Lose Kshs.32,964,416 in a contract to build a kitchen. A contract is irregularly issued to a firm to construct a kitchen.
The auditor says:
โPhysical verification of Central Kitchen for the programme in October, 2024 revealed several issues at Toi Primary Kitchen. Visible cracks were observed on the wall, despite the kitchen being completed only a year earlier.
There was no electricity meter installed. In addition, water connectivity was not installed by the contractor, instead, the implementor connected the water at their own cost. There was also poor workmanship of the pavements and the installed gas pipe was not connected to the cooking vessels, rendering it unusable.โ
Step #13. Lose Kshs.10,103,488,814 in a contract to build โaffordableโ homes.
Any contract exceeding Ksh. 5 billion requires approval by the Attorney General. The county wonโt get it. They use โspecially permitted procurementโ method where only one bidder provides a quote. So there is no competition, which is likely why they did not seek the Attorney Generalโs approval.
@SakajaJohnson and his lackies select the desired partner. ZERO competition. They don't seek the approval required.
A note on this particular one: There are actually 4 contracts valued at Ksh 31 billion which the auditor is expressing doubts. About legitimacy of the amount.
Quoting the auditor:
"In the circumstances, the ownership of the land, value for money and regularity for the housing projects contracts totalling Kshs.31,047,436,654 could not be confirmed. In addition, Management was in breach of the law"
My estimated loss is the Ksh 10 billion as presentative of what the loss could be. It is the only "estimate" in this analysis, and again, it is less than the Ksh 31 billion the auditor is questioning.
Step #14. Lose Kshs. 2,282,899,172 in stalled projects.
Quoting the auditor:
"Review of construction projects undertaken by the County Executive revealed that projects valued at Kshs.2,282,899,172 in respect to the construction of various projects have stalled. It was not clear why these projects remained stalled for years while the County Government embarked on new projects, some that still end up stalling due to non-payment of contract sums due. Failure to manage the projects in line with law may lead to loss of public funds and poor service delivery."
Step #15. Lose Kshs. 16,510,760 by awarding contracts to the highest bidder, when lower ones are available, and against the law.
Step #16. Lose Kshs.223,304,547 in shoddy works and projects. The County issues 4 contracts to build 4 stadiums at the cost of Kshs.1,036,551,255.
Stadiums in Kawangware, Ziwani, Kangemi and Dandora.
After Kshs.223,304,547 is paid out, the auditor notes:
>>The floodlights were non-functional and the internal lighting had not been installed.
>>The fieldโs surface was uneven, with noticeable bumps and depressions in certain areas, which rendered it unsuitable for football activities.
>>The electrical cables and wiring system on the field were exposed, increasing the risk of theft and vandalism.
>>The roofing materials used were substandard and showed visible signs of deterioration due to exposure to direct sunlight. According to the field management, rainwater frequently leaked through the roof, leading to water accumulation in the seating areas during rain.
>>The public address system was non-functional, as explained by the Management, who confirmed that the speakers were not operational.
>>There were visible holes in the perimeter wall. Rather than allowing footballs to bounce back into the field upon contact, footballs created holes due to penetration.
The stadium walls were constructed of soft boards, which could easily be penetrated with little force instead of durable concrete stone walls.
Total damage: KSH 32,949,346,981

Dear Kenyan middle class, your overpriced rental, 2nd hand Japanese/German car or cushy 15th floor corporate job at Upperhill can't shield you from dysfunction.
You're more close to Us, the Natives, than you are to being an extractive billionaire. Stop being delusional, Wake Up!
