The Kitui High Court will today start hearing a matter in which Governor Charity Ngilu has sued County Assembly Speaker George Ndotto for delaying the release of devolved funds.

In the suit, Mrs Ngilu is seeking orders to compel Mr Ndotto to release an official letter that would allow the National Treasury to disburse funds to the devolved unit following approval of the Appropriation Bill for the 2019/20 financial year.
