The county government is struggling due to delays in disbursement of funds by the National Treasury, Deputy Governor Titus Ntuciu has said.
Mr Ntuciu, who is also the Finance Executive, said many operations have been affected and salaries delayed.
"We last got money in January," he said, adding that the county is relying on bank overdrafts to meet its financial obligations.
"But even getting overdrafts is a challenge when we experience such long delays in receiving disbursements. We have to clear one overdraft facility before we borrow again," he said.
