Governors want the Auditor General to report how MPs have spent the Constituency Development Fund (CDF) in the last one year, alleging deliberate adverse audits on counties.

The county chiefs questioned the motive of only auditing the accounts of county governments yet they have been in charge of direct funding from the Treasury for barely a year.
