We have done a summary of the proposals that were rejected by MPs, why they were rejected, and the proposals that were passed.
Here is the deeper thread.
Save and share.
Today in the @Senate_KE, I will substantiate how public money is being hidden and stolen in plain sight through budget lines labelled “Other Operating Expenses.” OVER 90 BILLION!
If salaries, utilities, travel, maintenance, fuel, training, procurable items, and other expenditures already have specific vote heads, what exactly is hidden under this vague and ever-expanding category?
Even more troubling, the Constitution requires parliamentary approval for all public borrowing. Yet billions are spent under opaque budget lines that escape meaningful scrutiny.
Kenyans deserve transparency, not blank cheques for wastage, mismanagement, and theft. Every shilling collected from taxpayers must be traceable, justified, and accounted for.
The era of hiding public funds behind vague budget descriptions must come to an end. STAY TUNED
@moneyacademyKE With the recent change in calculation by @EPRA_KE , should we expect new prices on the 14th or now it moves to end of the month? @OpiyoWandayi
I serve as co-chair in David Maraga's political committee, where Shakira served (quite well actually) as the secretary until November last year when she resigned.
I'll do a thread to explain my experience of what transpired.
Me: I am sorry to say this, but your reports show you have liver cirrhosis.
47F: But how? I have never touched a drop of alcohol in my life. It must be a mistake! My husband drinks regularly and his liver is completely fine.
I have some version of this conversation in the wards every single week.
There is a massive, deeply ingrained myth out there: Cirrhosis = Alcohol.
Let's bust it.
While alcohol is a notorious liver-killer, it is far from the only cause of irreversible liver scarring. In fact, non-alcoholic causes are quietly becoming a global epidemic.
Here is what else destroys the liver 👇
A fight broke out between Gladys Wanga's brother-Robert Nyasuna and Hon. Onyango Koyoo after the former was denied opportunity to address the people. UDA Secretary General-Hassan Omar had to run for his dear life. Implosion in ODM has just started. May the strangest win.
State House increased its budget from KSh 7.7 billion to KSh 16.3 billion, and has already exhausted almost 89% of it. That is about KSh 1.4 billion being spent every single month!!!
Then the same government turns around and tells Kenyans there is no money for fuel subsidies, no money for healthcare, no money for farmers, no money for schools. They claim austerity measures yet at this point, public money is being spent like there is no tomorrow. Extravagance at the top, suffering at the bottom. Bottom up indeed.
Mwananchi is struggling to survive while State House spending balloons out of control. Priorities in this country are completely upside down.
