It
began with the famous NYS scandal under the Department of Devolution and
Planning. More than one billion Kenya shillings were misappropriated.
Investigations into the matter are still ongoing and the hope of getting the
answers as to whom apparently stole the cash is becoming bleak. The nation still
awaits the findings of EACC.
As
the scrutiny into NYS is still occurring, another corruption scandal has hit
the government again! This time, it’s the Health Department that has attracted
our attention. From the reports, more than five billion Kenya shillings went
missing after the usual tender allocations. Different companies are listed as
having received distinct millions of shillings in the allocation.
