Kisii Senator Richard Onyonka now wants the government to explain the unauthorized withdrawal of Sh1.3 trillion from the National Treasury between July 12, 2024 and February 20, 2025.
The senator, who sought a statement from the Senate Finance Committee, said the funds were withdrawn by the national and county governments from the exchequer manually, bypassing the automated financial management system meant to ensure transparency and accountability in public finance management.
