CoG says Government not supporting counties effectively

“What happens when money is sent to the ministries? The money delays before it reaches, there are a lot of bureaucracies and even there is a lot money stuck in the national agencies that should have come to the counties to help in service delivery,” he stated.

He emphasized the need for the law to be followed when channelling resources that are meant for counties especially on this matter of grants.

“The other important point in relation to this conditional grants is the mistake of classifying donor money as conditional grants. There is nowhere again in the law where donor money is classified as conditional grants,” he stated.

“We need to correct that so that money that is got from donors and is meant for county development can now be channelled directly to where they are supposed to go.”

He pointed out that ultimately, the important thing is for the funds to be equally distributed between the two levels of government so that operations can run smoothly.

“We exist legitimately and we are entitled to national resources shared nationally by institutions that have been created by law to share them equitably between the two levels of government.”
