Public outcry as 20 Kenyan MPs go to World Cup at 'taxpayers' expense' | Hot Topics

13th July, 2018

Kenyans have reacted furiously to news that 20 MPs have traveled to watch the World Cup at the taxpayers' expense.

They are watching four games, including the final, in a two-week trip to Russia estimated to be costing hundreds of thousands of US dollars.

The MPs caught the attention of Kenyans when they posted selfies in a stadium. 

Sports Minister Rashid Echesa told the BBC he had authorised only six MPs to travel, to help understand how to organise such big events.
