Integrity questions have chipped into the conversation surrounding the elections of Ken Lusaka as the speaker of the Senate relation to the corruption allegations leveled against when he was the Governor for Bungoma County. President Uhuru yesterday, 31 August said that Jubilee Party will front Lusaka for the speaker’s seat.
There were procurement queries which shocked many Kenyans during his administration in Bungoma with regard to the purchase of 10 wheelbarrows at the cost of Sh1 million each that instead could be bought at Ksh. 3,469 each. The surprise came when he confirmed the purchase of the wheelbarrows citing that they were a rare find and are long lasting.
